The Bureau of Customs has been on a roll in its big-time ant-smuggling campaigns as it confiscated, this time, around P1.4 billion worth of cigarettes in a raid on a warehouse in Sulu on Thursday, March 2.
Customs Intelligence and Investigation Service at the Manila International Container Port chief Alvin Enciso checks smuggled cigarettes discovered in a warehouse raided by a composite team in Indanan, Sulu on Thursday, March 2, 2023.
“The warehouse was found to contain an estimated 19,000 master cases of assorted imported cigarettes, such as B&E ice menthol, New Far menthol, Souvenir menthol, Cannon menthol, BroadPeak black menthol, and Bravo,” said Enciso. “Remember that this happened in Sulu, in Indanan. Yet, despite how far Mindanao is from us, we made sure that distance won’t stop us from serving the LOA,” said Uy.
Enciso, for his part, said the recent spate of warehouse raids that led to billions worth of discovery of smuggled items was made possible because the commissioner understands what is at stake.
