Cops
nab drugs,
rape suspects In
separate operations, law enforcers nabbed a suspected illegal drug runner in Dauis
and a rape suspect in Calape.
In Dauis, a joint team from the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Bohol
and the 703rd PNP Maritime arrested a resident of Barangay Mariveles.
The
suspect was identified as one Conrado Aranzado, 29, a resident of Purok 7.
Aranzado
was apprehended during a raid about 5:40 am last June 24. The raiding team recovered
seven packs of suspected shabu.
The
raid was conducted by virtue of a search warrant issued by Executive Judge Fernando
Fuentes III of the Regional Trial Court Branch 49 based in Tagbilaran.
Aranzado
was temporarily placed under the custody of PDEA-Bohol while appropriate charges
were being readied for filing against him.
The
seized substance were submitted to the Bohol PNP crime laboratory for chemical
analysis.

a young suspect in the rape of two sisters aged 6 and 7 were arrested by elements
of the Calape police.
The
suspect was identified as one Angel Ballon, 20, single and a resident of Barangay
Labuon, Calape.
PO2
Siegfred Veloso told Station DyTR that the girls are daughters of the suspect's
grandfather.
Veloso
said the girls are children of the man in his second marriage while the suspect
lives in the same house. | The
man chanced upon the suspect raping the 6-year-old girl in an abandoned house
nearby about 5:30 pm last June 26.
The
girl's father immediately reported the incident to the Calape PNP station.
Ballon
was arrested at 9:30 am the following day in Barangay Tultogan.
After
the suspect's arrest, the 7-year-old sister of the victim reported that she was
also abused by the same man but did not give the date.
The
suspect was detained at the Calape PNP lock-up jail while the charges were being
prepared against him.
Veloso
said the suspect is slated to undergo inquest proceedings on Monday.
As
this developed, another collector of the Taytay sa Kauswagan Inc. (TSKI) was held
up along the national highway in Trinidad town 7 pm last June 23.
The
suspect identified as Darwin Valero, 32, single and a resident of the same town
was divested of his collection amounting to P32,000 by three armed men who waited
for him along the road.
Valero
was riding on a habal-habal (motorcycle-for-hire) driven by one Joemar Polinar
when the suspects struck.
The
victim was on his way to remit his collections to the TSKI office in Talibon when
the motorcycle was blocked by the suspects in a motorcycle who wore bonnets to
hide their faces.
Aside
from his collections, Valero was also divested of his Nokie 6600 cellphone.
The
unabated hold-ups in the towns have alarmed residents who wonder why the Bohol
police are helpless against them. |
