Anti-illegal drugs

ISABELA CITY, Basilan – The communities’ involvement in curbing illegal drugs in the city will be revitalized by the Isabela City Anti-Drug Abuse Council (CADAC). In a recent meeting, the council has expressed concern over the dismissed cases filed before the prosecutor’s office due to technicalities and how these have been impacting on the morale of law enforcement, particularly the agents of the Philippines Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA). City Administrator Ramon T. Nuñal expressed dismay over how the drug-related cases failed to pass Fiscal’s scrutiny.“This is the reason why we have not called for the CADAC meeting for quite some time due to these frustrations on how the drug-related cases are being handled by the Fiscal Office,” he said.
