The suspect, Victor Abadenas Paran, a high-value individual from Sitio Hunop, was not able to escape when the police arrived.
Lieutenant Colonel Glenn Hife, chief of Balamban Police Station, told SunStar Cebu they conducted the raid together with operatives of Naval Forces Central (Navforcen), Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency and other police units after receiving reports that Paran was still growing marijuana.
Police uprooted 3,612 fully grown marijuana plants worth over P1.4 million.
The 3,610 marijuana plants were burned by the raiding team, and the two remaining plants were set aside to be used as evidence. (GPL/TPT)
