Beware of fake bills, says SPD
The Southern Police District warned the public on Sunday against counterfeit money following the arrest of a former Army soldier who used counterfeit money in a store. According to SPD director Brig. Gen. Roderick Mariano, small store owners should always keep their vigilance against fake bills, now that the “ber” months are approaching and shopping season peaks. “We urge the public to immediately report any person to the authorities using such bills in any transaction for appropriate action as the “ber months’ or the peak shopping season draws near,” Mariano said. The SPD’s statements come after authorities arrested a certain Kevin Jhon Soncio, a dismissed Army soldier after using counterfeit money in a sari-sari store in Barangay Fort Bonifacio Taguig City on Friday evening. The police report said the suspect paid a P1,000 bill for one pack of cigarettes. The witness, a minor who was tending the store during the incident, examined the bill and discovered it was fake. He immediately sought the assistance of village officials, who eventually arrested the suspect. Authorities seized from Soncio nine P1,000 counterfeit bills and different identification cards. During the arrest, the suspect introduced himself as a member of the Philippine Army. Upon validation, police found that he was already dismissed from the service and that he carried falsified documents. The suspect is now facing charges of violation of Article 168 of the Revised Penal Code or Illegal possession and use of false Treasury or Bank Notes and Other Instruments of Credit, usurpation of authority, and falsification of public documents. Meanwhile, the Taguig City Police is now preparing a counterfeit money verification request to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.

Police intercepts P9.4-M contraband
ZAMBOANGA CITY — Police authorities intercepted a watercraft loaded with 211 master cases of assorted smuggled cigarettes worth P9.495 million at the sea waters of Caldera Bay fronting the coastline of Barangay Sinunuc in this city. Police Regional Office for Zamboanga Peninsula Director P/Brig. Gen. Neil B. Alinsañgan said yesterday elements of the 2nd Zamboanga City Mobile Force Company conducted a seaborne patrol and were able to intercept a Jungkong type of watercraft fronting the coastal village of Sinunuc about 10:30 p.m. on Friday. Alinsañgan said the police immediately boarded the watercraft and were surprised to see the assorted master cases of smuggled cigarettes on board the watercraft. The patrolling policemen immediately asked the six crews for the pertinent papers but they failed to show them. The police immediately seized the contraband consisting of 128 master cases of the New Berlin brand and 83 master cases of the Cannon menthol brand. Customs authorities in coordination with the police intercepted a watercraft loaded with 211 master cases of suspected smuggled cigarettes worth P4.495 million and arrested its six crews. They also placed under custodial investigation the six crews identified as Julamad Banggali, 38 (boat captain); Ronald Banggali, 33; Elvin Jaladil, 26; Almajar Salim, 38; Teting Salem, 35 and one minor. The entry of smuggled cigarettes to this city is becoming rampant and the newly-installed Customs collector seems handicapped to curb the proliferation of the illicit goods. The fresh seizure of smuggled cigarettes reportedly came from Sulu, the trans-shipment site of smuggled cigarettes for cities and provinces in Mindanao. The new customs district collector for the port of Zamboanga has jurisdiction over provinces and cities in the Zamboanga peninsula and Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi (BaSulTa) seem shy to issue a statement on the border control situation under his area of jurisdiction. . .
