LIVE: House inquires into the seizure of P2.7-B illegal drugs at the Port of Manila | ABS-CBN News

Описание: Lawmakers grilled officials from the Bureau of Customs (BOC) and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) regarding a missed opportunity to catch a drug syndicate mastermind. The NBI revealed they intended to conduct a "Controlled Delivery" operation to track the P2.7-billion shabu shipment to its final recipient. However, the operation was aborted after Customs issued an "Alert Order," effectively notifying the consignee and compromising the sting operation.
