A drug offender who was recently released from prison through a plea bargaining agreement was again arrested by police for drug charges in Tagbilaran City.
In a report, police said operatives of the Bohol police Provincial Intelligence Branch (PIB) apprehended Roel Saldo, 30, through a buy-bust operation in Barangay Dao on Wednesday night.
Police collared Saldo after he was allegedly caught red-handed as he sold shabu to a poseur-buyer.
The arresting intelligence officers seized from the suspect six grams of shabu which were estimated to be worth P40,800.
