MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— Two individuals were arrested on Wednesday after receiving two parcels believed to contain six kilograms of methamphetamine hydrochloride “shabu” estimated to be worth PHP34 million in Trece Martires, Cavite.<\/p>\n

The suspects were identified as Taib Paidlac Suriong III, 37, and Maurica Nadal de Padua, 35, who were both target-listed as drug personalities.<\/p>\n

The operation was conducted by Agents of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport- Interagency Drug Interdiction Task Group (NAIA-DITG), Bureau of Customs- Clark, Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA)-NCR, and PDEA-Region III.<\/p>\n

According to Bureau of Customs (BOC) Commissioner Isidro Lapena, the two shipments arrived from United States on Tuesday through a courier at the BOC-Clark.<\/p>\n

The cargoes were held immediately after receiving a tip from PDEA that it would be subject of controlled delivery to the consignees.<\/p>\n

The PDEA said they received a tip from the US Homeland Security. The sender, a certain Christian Lozano from California, USA, sent two packages to a certain Raymond Cruz Miranda and Leonel Adriano Romero who reside at the same address in Trece Martires.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt 1800H yesterday (Wednesday), the agents proceeded at the address where the arrested suspects presented IDs of Miranda and Romero to claim the packages,” the BOC chief said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Elements of the NAIA-DITG includes PDEA, BOC, Customs Anti-Illegal Drugs Task Force, National Bureau of Investigation, Philippine National Police-Drug Enforcement Group, Bureau of Immigration, Office for Transport Security, and Manila International Airport Authority-Airport Police Department.<\/p>\n

“I am optimistic that we will catch more smugglers and drugs this year with the strengthened coordination between the elements of NAIA-DITG against illegal drugs smuggling,” the Customs chief said.<\/p>\n

The suspects and the confiscated shabu were turned over to PDEA for investigation and proper disposition.<\/p>\n

Charges for violating Section 4 in relation to Section 26, Article II of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 and the Customs Modernization and Tariff Act will be filed against the suspects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
