Malolos Regional Trial Court Judge Oscar Herrera also ordered the convict, Willy Ko, to pay a total fine of P1 million for the two cases filed against him by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA).
Ko was arrested in a buy-bust in Obando town on March 3 last year. He sold 993.104 grams of shabu to a poseur-buyer and yielded an additional 1.0014 grams when he was nabbed.
Herrera dismissed Ko’s claims that PDEA agents merely abducted him, saying these were "self-serving and cannot prevail over the positive declarations of the police officers." — James Mananghaya
