BAUKO, Mountain Province – A suspected member of a syndicate operating a large marijuana distribution network in Luzon was arrested while marijuana and hashish oil valued at P12 million were seized in an interdiction operation conducted by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and Police Regional Office-Cordillera here last Friday.
PDEA Regional Director Gil Castro identified the suspect as Rexton Bangang of Sadanga, this province.
Castro said 99 kilos of marijuana in brick form and 60 milliliters of hashish oil were recovered from the suspect loaded in his Toyota Tamaraw FX.
Castro said Bangang was intercepted during a follow-up operation thru the land transportation interdiction unit, a new technology being used in a police checkpoint against the transport of illegal drugs, after members of a syndicate operating a  marijuana distribution network in Northern and Central Luzon were arrested in two separate anti-illegal drug operations last week.
