NAIA faces renewed fears of bullet-planting scheme

inquirer.net

A recent incident at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) has raised concerns about the return of the "tanim-bala" bullet-planting scheme. An elderly passenger was stopped by security officers who claimed to have found a bullet casing in her luggage, later changing their story. In response to the incident, President Marcos has called for an investigation, and three security personnel were fired. The Department of Transportation emphasized a zero-tolerance policy for such behavior, aiming to restore public confidence in airport security. Naia's reputation has suffered from past corruption and poor facilities. The new management, New Naia Infra Corp., is working to improve security and transparency, but this recent case highlights ongoing issues that need to be addressed.
