THE DAVAO City Police Office (DCPO) intensified its week-long anti-criminality campaign from March 29 to April 4, resulting in the arrest of 111 individuals and the seizure of nearly P1.9 million worth of illegal drugs.
Col Peter Bauzon Madria said anti-illegal drug units conducted 55 separate operations, leading to the arrest of 64 suspects. Authorities confiscated 278.39 grams of suspected shabu with an estimated street value of P1,893,116.60, along with a smaller quantity of marijuana.
During this period, the DCPO also arrested 33 fugitives, including seven individuals classified as “most wanted persons.”
In the campaign against loose firearms, eight operations led to the arrest of three suspects and the recovery of 11 firearms, three of which were seized in operations, while five were surrendered.
Finally, police conducted eight raids and arrested 11 individuals for illegal gambling. Authorities filed eight cases against the suspects.
“These achievements reflect not only the dedication of the men and women of DCPO but also the strong partnership with the community,” he said.
