A politician from Mindanao allegedly paid for the chartered plane linked to 521 kilograms of suspected shabu seized in Laos, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) said on Thursday, according to The Manila Times and GMA News. PDEA spokesman Joseph Frederick Calulut did not name the politician because case buildup is ongoing, but said the person belongs to a party opposed to the administration.
