URDANETA CITY – Three villages in
this burgeoning city have been cleared by the police as drug –free.
According to Mayor Amadeo
Gregorio "Bobom" E. Perez IV they were Barangays Cabaruan, Otama, and Tipuso.
The basis of the police in
declaring these villages as narcotic free were the absence of drug users,
pushers, and financiers.
“Ito iyong mga barangays na
kakaunti. Tinitingnan namin mga barangay na surveillance nila Tipuso, eleven lang ang nandoon (users) e,” Senior Police
Officer-4 Roberto Reyes, the chief of the non-commissioned police officer here, said.
He cited that these three
villages are the smallest barangays in this eastern Pangasinan city.
This city has been considered as
one of the places in Pangasinan if not in Region-1 that faces serious proliferation of dangerous
drugs in the 44 towns and four cities’ province.
“The eleven former drug users are no longer
hooked in narcotics. Beside, no pushers have attempted to sell illegal drugs
there,” the policeman cited one of the three villages why it was declared as
drug-free.
SPO4 Reyes cited that freeing
these villages under the menace of narcotics had been attained
through hard work.
“Medyo mahirap siya, trabaho
talaga tayo, kaya natin gawin pag nagtrabaho talaga”.
