THE Bureau of Customs Ninoy Aquino International Airport (BOC NAIA), in partnership with the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and the NAIA Inter-Agency Drug Interdiction Task Group (NAIA-IADITG), recently intercepted three air parcels containing illegal drugs at the Central Mail Exchange Center (CMEC) in Pasay City.
A physical examination of the parcels revealed 96 disposable vape cartridges filled with cannabis oil, 468 grams of kush (a high-grade marijuana), and 957 grams of methamphetamine hydrochloride (shabu), with a total estimated street value of P7,386,672.
The parcels, originating from the USA and Pakistan, were addressed to various recipients in Cebu City, Bacolod City, and Naga City.
The confiscated drugs are now in the custody of PDEA for further investigation and potential charges under Republic Act (RA) 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, and RA 10863 known as the Customs Modernization and Tariff Act (CMTA).
“Our commitment in preventing illegal drugs from entering the country remains unwavering. This operation underscores our dedication to safeguarding our communities,” BOC Commissioner Bienvenido Y. Rubio said.
Under the leadership of district collector attorney Yasmin O. Mapa, BOC NAIA will persist in its efforts to secure our borders and combat illegal drug trafficking.
