Several Bureau of Customs (BOC) personnel are under investigation by the agency for alleged involvement in a syndicate that diverts to the local market smuggled ukay-ukay (used clothes) worth millions of pesos seized by bureau operatives.
The erring customs employees include members of the bureau’s police force and Anti-Organized Crime Group, as well as staffers at the Office of the Commissioner and the customs collection district in San Fernando City, La Union.
