CONTRABANDS like nail cutters, threads, cans, and other unauthorized items were seized during a greyhound operation inside the Metro Bacolod District Jail-Special Intensive Care Area (MBDJ-Sica) in Barangay Taculing, Bacolod City Wednesday morning.
Operatives of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency as well as police and jail personnel conducted a surprise inspection inside the cells.
Senior Inspector Larry Fuentes, jail warden of MBDJ-Sica, said no illegal drugs and bladed weapons were recovered during the operation.
The non-recovery of illegal drugs was attributed to the strict security enforced by the jail management among the visitors.
The greyhound operation is a continuous campaign of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology to cleanse the jail facilities of illegal items.
