MULTIPLE police operations have turned up a total of P17.1 million worth of illegal marijuana in the province of Kalinga in a single week.

On Tuesday, the Provincial Drug Enforcement Group of the Kalinga Provincial Police Office and Naval Intelligence Security Group Northern Luzon (NISG-NL) destroyed some 17,000 fully grown marijuana plants worth P3.4 million in an operation in Tinglayan town in Kalinga, while a second separate operation conducted by the Tinglayan Municipal Police Station (TMPS) found another 4,000 plants worth P800,000.

A day after, the drug unit, along with the Provincial Intelligence Unit of the Kalinga Provincial Police Office and Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency-Kalinga acted on a tip about a marijuana plantation in Tulgao East.
