00:18 has been issued by NBI to the warehouses in Elcano Street in Binondo, Manila

00:27 [Music]
00:32 Cold storage facilities that are being smuggled by smuggled agricultural products
00:37 were raided by NBI last night.
00:40 This letter of authority is a bit bit.
00:43 From BOC, there was a legitimacy operation of NBI to enter these warehouses.
00:51 They are smuggling smuggled products such as broccoli, celery, apples, grapes, and other vegetables and fruits from other countries.
01:03 According to NBI, these are being smuggled from China.
01:06 And some local farmers are complaining because the low price of smuggled vegetables is affecting their livelihood.
01:12 NBI confirmed the smuggled vegetables being smuggled with the help of case build-up and test buy.
01:19 GMA Integrated News reported on this.
01:22 To the people who are guarding the warehouse and the store,
01:24 they have no idea that the vegetables here are illegally smuggled.
01:28 Here is the statement of the Bureau of Customs regarding this operation.
01:32 I just entered here and they said I will just sell and receive.
01:39 We have no idea where the owner is.
01:41 We only know that the one with the head is just up there.
01:45 He is a Filipino. That's all we can talk about.
01:49 Upon discovery of such goods, we saw that there are many imported products like broccoli, vegetables, and other agri-products.
02:02 In this operation, we caught 5 million agricultural products.
02:14 This is a big blame on the local farmers.
02:19 The Bureau of Customs will not stop in finding these smuggling activities.
02:25 Authorities are investigating who are behind this smuggling.
02:34 They are facing violations in the Customs Modernization and Tariff Act.
02:40 Live from Manila, I'm Bam Alagre.
