According to the police, Navarette II was already in the drug watchlist of General Santos City Police Office. Three years ago, he already surrendered to the police.
“We have monitored na he is still involved in the drug. He is also a target din pero unfortunately talagang hindi siya mahuli-huli. So hindi natin sinasantabi ‘yan and reports would still show that he is involved in illegal activity,” Police Major Roland Pascual of Police Station 6 said.
