We, the UNDERSIGNED Police Officers, both members of
the Philippine National Police Anti-Drug Unit, presently assigned at the Police Station 1 of Digos City, do hereby depose and state that: 1. We are among the members of the Digos City Police Team who conducted a buy-bust operation at Estrada 3 rd, Digos City near the Little Ambassadors Child Learning Center together with the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA). 2. Said operation stemmed from a report of our confidential agent/informant Nustradamus Wagapataka for violation of Section 5, Article II of Republic Act No. 9165 (The Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002) which was referred to our office by the informant himself against Maryaddict Tabuyoc, 27 years of age, single, Filipino and residing at Estrada 3rd, Digos City in front the Little Ambassadors Child Learning Center. 3. After conducting a quick surveillance on 4 January 2016 to ascertain the truthfulness of report made by Nustradamus Wagapataka about Maryaddict Tabuyocs alleged drugrelated activities, we planned a buy-bust operation. 4.

plastic sachet containing a white crystalline substance and handed it to informant Wagapataka. 8.
