The Bureau of Customs confiscated P1.67 million worth of illegal drugs and marijuana-infused vapes.

THE Bureau of Customs (BoC) said it intercepted a shipment with illegal drugs and marijuana-infused disposable vapes, with a combined worth of P1.67 million.

In a statement on Tuesday, the BoC said this shipment contained 1,098 grams of “kush” or high-grade marijuana together with 30 disposable vape pens, including 10 cannabis-infused vapes, in the Port of Clark.

Customs added that the parcel was declared as “tub shower faucet set,” which came from Arizona, United States, and was bound for Quezon City.

“It was flagged through enhanced profiling and x-ray scanning by the BoC’s X-ray Inspection Project (XIP) after revealing suspicious images,” the BoC said.

The BoC said the three transparent plastic packs found had dried leaves and fruiting tops suspected to be high-grade marijuana were found concealed within the parcel. — Aubrey Rose A. Inosante
