Live-in partners were arrested in a late Thursday night buy-bust operation by Police Station 8 (PS8) at Purok Neptune in Barangay Singcang-Airport, Bacolod City.

Police identified the arrested individuals as 39-year-old Eduardo Villanueva, Jr. and his live-in partner 34-year-old Rodhah Mae Guevarra, both residents of the said place.

PS8 commander, Police Chief Inspector Ruel Culanag, said Guevarra was the subject of the operation as she was identified as a high-value drug target.

Police recovered a total seven sachets of suspected shabu from the suspects, with a market value of P20,000.

Both suspects are now detained at PS8 on drug-related charges./DGB, WDJ
