“BOMB JOKE” INCIDENT AT NAIA TERMINAL 1 LEADS TO PASSENGER’S ARREST

Pasay City — A 50-year-old male passenger bound for Hong Kong was arrested following an alleged bomb joke incident at the departure area of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 on November 10, 2026.

The incident occurred while an airline passenger service agent was explaining restrictions on dangerous goods and electronic devices, when the passenger allegedly uttered, “Bomba, may bomba 'yan,” causing alarm and distress to the airline personnel.

Responding PNP Aviation Security Group personnel immediately conducted an investigation and coordinated with the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team. The passenger's baggage and the area were inspected and declared clear of explosives and incendiary materials. He was subsequently arrested and brought to the NAIA Police Station 1 for proper disposition.

The PNP AVSEGROUP is preparing the appropriate criminal complaint for an alleged violation of Presidential Decree No. 1727 (Anti-Bomb Joke Law), in relation to Article 287 of the Revised Penal Code (Unjust Vexation).

Director PBGEN Dionisio B. Bartolome Jr. emphasized that bomb jokes are never taken lightly, as they can cause unnecessary alarm and disrupt airport operations. He reiterated the PNP AVSEGROUP's commitment to ensuring the safety and security of the traveling public. # # #

₱22-MILLION IN SUSPECTED SMUGGLED CI******ES SEIZED IN PNP OPERATIONS IN LANAO DEL SUR, CAVITE

Under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief PNP, a significant volume of suspected smuggled ci******es worth nearly ₱22 million has been taken off the market following separate police operations in Lanao del Sur and Cavite, underscoring the Philippine National Police's intensified efforts to disrupt illicit trade and protect legitimate economic activities.

The operations resulted in the recovery of 353 boxes and master cases of suspected smuggled ci******es valued at ₱21,940,280, along with four vehicles believed to have been used in transporting the goods.

In Picong, Lanao del Sur, police personnel recovered 45 boxes of suspected smuggled ci******es worth ₱1.92 million after a pursuit operation led them to an abandoned truck along Bario Road, Barangay Ramitan, on November 9. The operation began when the driver of the vehicle evaded a police checkpoint and fled toward another barangay. The driver has yet to be identified.

In a separate operation on November 10, joint personnel of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG), Carmona City Police Station, local government personnel, and a private-sector partner discovered three abandoned delivery trucks at Sterling Technopark, Barangay Lantic, Carmona City, Cavite. The vehicles contained 308 master cases of suspected smuggled ci******es with an estimated value of ₱20.02 million.

The recovered ci******es and vehicles were secured for documentation and proper disposition, with the Cavite operation's confiscated items subject to appropriate turnover to the concerned authorities for further investigation.

Chief PNP Nartatez stressed that the campaign against smuggling is not only about recovering illicit goods but also about preventing illegal trade from undermining legitimate businesses and the country's economic interests.

“Kapag napipigilan natin ang pagpasok at paggalaw ng mga produktong hindi dumaan sa tamang proseso, we are also protecting businesses that follow the rules and the livelihoods of Filipinos who depend on them. We will continue to strengthen our operations and work closely with our partners so that these activities do not gain ground,” he said.

The operations support the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to strengthen law enforcement and safeguard the country's economic interests. They also reflect the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), through intelligence-led action, effective coordination, and the efficient deployment of police resources.

The PNP will sustain its coordination with the Bureau of Customs, local government units, and other concerned stakeholders to help prevent the circulation of illicit products and ensure that those responsible are held accountable through due process.

With every coordinated operation, the PNP reinforces its commitment to protecting the public interest and delivering on its promise of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

PNP ARRESTS 2, SEIZES ₱16.9M IN SUSPECTED SHABU IN ILOILO, ZAMBOANGA SIBUGAY

The Philippine National Police (PNP), under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., has intensified its campaign against illegal drugs, with separate operations in Iloilo City and Zamboanga Sibugay resulting in the arrest of two individuals and the confiscation of approximately 2.48 kilograms of suspected shabu with a combined Standard Drug Price (SDP) of ₱16,884,400.00.

The operations, conducted on November 10 and early morning of November 11, highlight the continuing efforts of police units to disrupt the distribution of illegal drugs through coordinated and intelligence-driven action.

In Iloilo City, a joint team arrested a 28-year-old high-value individual during a buy-bust operation on November 10 in Barangay San Isidro, Jaro. Authorities recovered approximately 153 grams of suspected shabu with an SDP of ₱1,040,400.00, along with buy-bust money and other items.

The operation involved the PNP Drug Enforcement Group Special Operations Unit 6, Iloilo City Police Station 9, Integrity Monitoring and Enforcement Group Visayas, Iloilo Maritime Police Station, and Regional Intelligence Unit 6.

In a separate operation on November 11, police arrested another individual in Barangay Poblacion, Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay. The operation led to the confiscation of approximately 2,330 grams of suspected shabu with an SDP of ₱15,844,000.00, together with buy-bust money and other non-drug evidence.

The operation was carried out by Ipil Municipal Police Station, Zamboanga Sibugay Police Provincial Office, Regional Mobile Force Battalion 9, Regional Intelligence Unit 9, and the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency Zamboanga Sibugay Provincial Office.

Chief PNP Nartatez emphasized that sustained anti-drug efforts must focus not only on apprehending those involved but also on cutting off the supply of illegal drugs before they reach communities.

“Bawat operasyon ay may mas malaking layunin—ang ilayo ang ating mga komunidad sa pinsalang dulot ng ilegal na droga. Hindi sapat na may mahuli tayo; mahalaga ring maputol ang daloy ng ilegal na droga bago pa ito makarating sa ating mga lansangan at kabahayan. That is why we remain committed to intelligence-driven operations, strong coordination, and lawful police action to protect our communities,” PGen Nartatez said.

The operations reflect the PNP's continuing implementation of the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), which emphasizes intelligence-led initiatives, effective coordination, and measurable operational results. These efforts also support the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in strengthening public safety and protecting communities from the effects of illegal drugs.

Both arrested individuals are under police custody for proper documentation and disposition, while the confiscated substances will undergo appropriate examination. The PNP continues to remind the public that its anti-drug campaign remains grounded in the rule of law, due process, and the protection of human rights.

Through sustained and accountable police action, the PNP remains committed to making communities safer and delivering on its promise of Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.
