Tubigon’s top drug personality who was previously detained for drug peddling in 2011 was rearrested in buy-bust operation on Saturday afternoon.

Suspect Dexter Maligmat, 35, was collared after he was caught red-handed selling suspected shabu worth P500 to an undercover police operative.

A Tubigon police report noted that Maligmat, a resident of Brgy. Pooc Occidental, Tubigon, tried to escape but he was immediately apprehended by responding police officers.

The operative recovered two other packs of suspected shabu and drug paraphernalia as he was frisked.
