A 61-year-old Filipino female passenger from Nueva Ecija, bound for Hong Kong, was flagged during routine baggage screening at NAIA Terminal 3 after X-ray operators detected an image resembling bundles of cash in her trolley bag. The matter was escalated to airport authorities, in coordination with the Bureau of Customs (BOC) and PNP Aviation Security Group (AVSEGROUP), conducted a manual inspection. This led to the discovery of PHP 1,200,000.00 in cash concealed in the luggage.
The cash and the passenger are now in the custody of the Bureau of Customs (BOC) for serial number identification and further investigation.
โThis incident reflects the strong coordination and alertness of our security forces. AVSEGROUP remains committed to ensuring safe and secure airport operations at all times,โ said PBGen Jason L Capoy, AVSEGROUP, Director. # # #
