Customs intercept ₱9.9M worth of imported kush at postal and Clark parcel channels
Bureau of Customs officers intercepted imported cannabis across two parcel-channel operations reported on 28 January 2026. At the Central Mail Exchange Center in Pasay City on 22 January, eight inbound postal parcels declared as clothing, dog food, and board games were found to contain approximately 2,482 grams of cannabis characterised as kush, with a reported standard drug price of over ₱3.7 million. In a separate operation, the BOC together with the Clark Inter-Agency Task Force Against Illegal Drugs seized approximately 4.11 kilograms of high-grade kush concealed in a cylindrical container within a shipment declared as a "polyester rug runner." That shipment originated in California and was consigned to San Mateo, Rizal; it was valued at ₱6.16 million. Combined across the two interceptions, BOC seized approximately 6.6 kilograms of imported cannabis valued at ₱9.9 million. Charges were framed under Section 4, Article II of Republic Act 9165 and provisions of Republic Act 10863 covering misdeclaration and unlawful importation. BOC Commissioner Ariel Nepomuceno attributed the seizures to sustained monitoring of parcel channels against trafficking networks.
