Arnoco said that the watcher did not know yet that he tested positive for drugs and he continued to work unless there would already be a confirmation from the COSAP of his engagement with illegal drugs. “Sa akoang nailhan niya, possible gyud ni siya kay naa man gud koy gipangutana niya ba nga nganong sa iyang area pwerteng daghana ang drugs sa iyang area unya wa jod sya kasumbong nako or sa mga police. Possible, nga naa gyuy something diha, naa nakoy duda niya ato,”Arnoco said.
Arnoco said that most of the residents there were much empowered these days as they now had the courage to report should there be illegal drug activities in the area, unlike the previous years.
