TWO suspected drug personalities were arrested by the Station Drug Enforcement Unit of Masantol town in coordination with Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA)- Central Luzon, in recent separate drug busts.

Masantol police chief Major Elias Tait identified the first suspect with his alias "Moya," 34, a native of adjacent Macabebe town.

The suspect, Tait said, was arrested after selling illegal drugs to poseur buyer in Barangay San Isidro Matua here.

Both suspects are detained at the station as they face charges for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.
