The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) confiscated P41 million worth of illegal drugs and arrested 321 suspects during a series of anti-drug operations over the past week.

In a statement on Sunday, NCRPO said these were the results of 204 coordinated law enforcement activities from Oct. 31 to Nov. 7.

The five districts covered by the NCRPO are the Manila Police District, Quezon City Police District, Northern Police District, Southern Police District, and Eastern Police District (EPD).

The EPD’s seizure of five kilograms of kush valued at P7.5 million highlighted NCRPO’s accomplishments in the campaign against illegal drugs.

The NCRPO said community involvement also remains important, with residents encouraged to report suspicious activities, contribute to drug prevention efforts and support ongoing rehabilitation programs.
