Philippine authorities said today that anti-narcotics operations have led to the arrest of 10 suspects, including three Chinese nationals, and the seizure of nearly 1 metric ton of methamphetamine, the country's biggest drug haul ever.
Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II said that the 890 kilograms of methamphetamine seized in raids this month has a street value of around USD 120 million.
The National Bureau of Investigation has filed criminal complaints before the Justice Department against three Chinese and three Filipino suspects arrested Friday in almost simultaneous raids in suburban Manila in which 600 kilograms of methamphetamine was seized.
