MANILA, Philippines–A female call center agent allegedly moonlighting as a drug peddler ‎was nabbed by anti-narcotics agents in a buy-bust operation inside a fast-food restaurant along General McArthur Avenue in Cubao, Quezon City.

Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) operatives arrested Jenny Tecson, alias “Jelai,” of Escopa IV village in Project 4, after selling a plastic bag of “shabu,” or methamphetamine hydrochloride to a poseur buyer.

The operation was made a day after PDEA agents seized on Monday P5 million peso worth of “shabu” from two suspected drug pushers also at a fast-food chain inside Ali Mall in Cubao.
