The Calamba City police arrested on Wednesday two “high-value” suspects in a drug buy-bust operation that also yielded P190 million worth of suspected shabu.
The suspects were identified as Donna Mateo Gall, also known as “Madam,” 37, of Barangay San Pablang Nayon, Sto Tomas City, Batangas; and John Erwin Matol Cadilife, alias “Erwin,” 37, of Barangay Lechena, Calamba City, Laguna.
“The suspected drugs were being transported from outside Calamba, using it solely as a drop-off point. However, due to our extensive and comprehensive operation, we were able to apprehend them,” Lt. Col. Milany Martirez said. Roy Tomandao

Drug charges were being readied against the suspects.
