Castro disclosed the cohabiting Atienza and David were the drug den maintainers and members of a notorious drug group operating in Baguio City and La Trinidad, Benguet.  Castillo is also a member of another drug group that also operates in Baguio City and La Trinidad, Benguet while Espina and Sarmiento were visitors of the drug den.

Aside from the dangerous drugs, the PDEA operatives were able to seize several drug paraphernalia such as improvised pipes and filters, lighters, improvised totters, scissors, aluminum foils, butane burners, a shisha and a digital weighing scale.

The suspects, who are now detained at the Baguio City Jail, are now facing cases for violation of Republic Act No. 9165 otherwise known as the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.0

“We will continue pursuing our unrelenting and uncompromising anti-drug operations regionwide in order to curb the drug menace that affect today’s youth, especially those who are exposed to the use of illegal drugs, so that the region will become drug free in the future,” Castro stressed.

Aside from marijuana which is popularly produced in remote villages of the Cordillera, Castro said PDEA agents are also closely watching the trade of various forms of illegal drugs like shabu and other high profile drugs that are being traded in the urban areas of the region.
