Aviation police clarify new ‘tanim-bala’ issue
The Philippine National Police - Aviation Security Group (PNP-AVSEGROUP) has denied reports of a U.S. citizen being detained for 48 hours at NAIA due to a 'tanim bala' incident.
The denial addresses a social media post that alleged a U.S. citizen was a victim of the 'tanim bala' scheme at NAIA within the past 48 hours.
PNP-AVSEGROUP confirmed a separate incident involving an American citizen at Clark International Airport last Thursday.
In the Clark incident, the American citizen was arrested for possessing a magazine with 12 rounds of 9mm ammunition without proper documentation.
The arrested suspect has undergone inquest proceedings and faces charges under RA 10951, remaining in police custody at Clark International Airport.
