MANDAUE CITY, Cebu — Another law enforcement group in Central Visayas has intensified its monitoring of the rampant operations of drug dens in the region. The Philippine National Police Drug Enforcement Group in Central Visayas (PDEG-7) also noted that drug den operations have evolved due to the heightened quarantine restrictions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Police Major Alejandro Batobalanos, PDEG-7 deputy officer, made this statement following the arrest of five individuals in a buy-bust operation, which also resulted in the dismantling of a drug den in Barangay Basak San Nicolas, Cebu City, on Tuesday, September 14, 2021.
