Undercover police helped expose cartel

Information supplied by a seasoned police undercover agent led authorities to a game fowl breeding farm in Lipa City where a notorious Mexican drug cartel and its local partner stored a huge shipment of shabu.

The agent, who works for the Philippine National Police’s Anti-Illegal Drugs Special Operations Task Force (AID-SOTF), shadowed members of the Sinaloa cartel and a Chinese drug syndicate for a month, AID-SOTF spokesman Chief Insp. Roque Merdeguia told The Manila Times on Monday.
