With the assistance of the Panglao Police Station, they seized P442,000 worth of shabu from 32-year-old Noi Clet, alias Ondoy.

Leia Alcantara, PDEA 7 spokesperson, said they received word that Clet was involved in the illegal drug trade, prompting them to place him under surveillance for a month before conducting the operation.
