GOVERNMENT agents assigned at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport have seized two shipments of shabu worth more than P5.9 million at a cargo warehouse in Pasay City.
A composite team from the Bureau of Customs, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency and the NAIA Inter-Agency Drug Interdiction Task Group (NAIA-IADITG) confiscated the contraband at the DHL Express Cargo Warehouse.
Based on import and export documents, the shipment bound to Australia and the other came from the United States were falsely declared as eyelash set, hair dryer, hairbrush, and bread toaster.
But Customs agents, with assistance from the DHL Assessment and Export Division Units, placed the shipments under X-ray screening and physical examination, resulting in the discovery of 878 grams of shabu. Joel E. Zurbano
The parcel that came from Phoenix, Arizona was consigned to a certain Raymond Dulla, a resident of Bangkal, Makati City, while the other parcel sent by one Cherry Aguiling of Cavite was consigned to Gordon Wood of 2774 Mount Riverside, Australia.
The Port of NAIA turned over the seized shipments to the PDEA for further investigation and proper disposition.
