Anti-smuggling group raids Thai sugar in Cebu


The Sugar Anti-Smuggling Office, the Philippine National Police, and the Bureau of Customs confiscated over the weekend in Mandaue, Cebu some sacks of sugar smuggled into the country from Thailand. More stocks of sugar were also raided in Mabolo, Cebu City. The stocks were reportedly headed for sale in a popular mall at Pier 5. The volume and value of the raided stock, now under the custody of BOC, were not disclosed. Sources said these stocks of sugar may have come from a single supplier, which the operatives are now validating. Earlier, several stores in Central Luzon, specifically in Pampanga and Tarlac, were found to have smuggled sugar in their warehouses. —MR Gavin/Jesse Edep/VS, GMANews.TV
