BACOOR CITY, Cavite – Two women were arrested by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) over a parcel containing “Star Wars” toy with drugs during the entrapment operation in Barangay Queen’s Row here, Tuesday, September 27, 2022.

Joint Elements of PDEA RO III (RSET) headed by Regional Director Bryan Babang, PDEA Clark Inter-Agency Drug Interdiction Task Group, Bureau of Customs (BOC), Port of Clark, and Bacoor SDEU led by P/Lt. Darwin B. Nobleza seized one package containing two Star Wars stuffed toys; each had three plastic bags containing a total of 1,140 grams of shabu valued at P7,866,000; identification cards; and a Huawei mobile phone.

The package from London arrived last September 23, 2022, declared as “Babysoft Toys” initially tagged as suspicious by X-ray inspection personnel and underwent K9 sniffing that prompted an indication of the presence of illegal drugs.

The parcel was subjected to a physical examination that led to the discovery of stuffed shabu.

Field testing was conducted through a Rigaku Progeny ResQ FLX chemical analyzer, which resulted in methamphetamine hydrochloride (shabu).

Authorities conducted a “controlled delivery” operation which resulted in the arrest of the suspects.
