The suspect was identified as Danny Boon, 34. Boon boarded a Thai Airlines flight TG 624 from Bangkok to Manila.
He was arrested at the Terminal 1 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
However, Bangkok Airport authorities already informed the Bureau of Customs and the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency about the questionable substance the airport security x-ray found on his checked-in luggage.
When arrested, police found some 3.6 kilos of shabu in his luggage. He admitted it was not his first time to visit the Philippines.
A follow-up operation also resulted to the arrest of a Nepalese woman who was supposed to pick up the illegal drugs from him in a hotel in Malate, Manila.
Authorities withheld the name of the Nepalese pending further follow-up operation for the possible arrest of other suspects. -Black Pearl Media (July 21, 2012 3:49PM)
