Authorities apprehended a Zambian woman claiming to be a student in the Philippines at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) after discovering over P60 million worth of suspected shabu in a false compartment of her bag. The suspect was flagged as a 'hot flight' from Addis Ababa Airport in Ethiopia, indicating a high possibility of drug trafficking. Police Brigadier General Christopher Abrahano, Director of the PNP-AVSEGROUP, stated that the drugs were found through a combination of careful inspection and the assistance of K9 units. The suspect's passport showed her first entry into the Philippines.
Nasabat ang nasa mahigit P60 milyong halaga ng hinihinalang shabu umano sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport galing sa isang babaeng Zambian na nagpakilalang estudyante umano sa Pilipinas.
“Hindi siya makikita. Designed siya para i-mislead 'yung inspectors natin. Pero upon closer inspection, at saka sa tulong na rin ng ating mga K9, malalaman talaga na merong laman. Chineck ng ating K9, so nag-positive for drugs. So in-open 'yung luggage in the presence ng ating Drug Interdiction Task Group natin. Nung na-find out na drugs, it was tested,” sabi ni Police Brigadier General Christopher Abrahano, Director ng PNP-AVSEGROUP.
“Wala naman siyang school na masabi, tapos wala siyang mga reservations o dormitories,” sabi ni Abrahano. Ipinaliwanag ng PNP-AFC Group na hot flight ang tawag sa mga biyaheng tinututukan sa hinalang may drogang dala mula sa bansang pinagmulan nito.
