A Beautiful Female College Student with a perfect clean record was the latest victim of Tanim Bala Scam in NAIA.
She was suppose to join a choral competition to South Korea but was Prevented to Board the Plane.
The alleged scammers might have realized that they made a mistake with their target victim
when they found out it was a big group of students going to Busan Korea

An OFW going to Hongkong to work was arrested after another alleged tanim-bala scam in NAIA.
Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) General Manager Jose Angel Honrado (a retired general)
defended the police who arrested OFW Gloria Ortinez.
The OFW has been working as a veteran domestic helper in Hongkong for 20 Years
and never had any record prior to the alleged tanim bala incident.
Mrs. Ortinez has the potential risk to lose her opportunity to work in Hong Kong again
because of being listed as a security risk in the Official Philippine Avaiation Record.
The Chief Police Inspector in the Video is Supt. Ricardo Layug.
Could he be the same police who was relieved from his post in 2013?
A station commander named Supt. Ricardo Layug of MPD Station 3 of Sta. Cruz Manila was removed
from his post for alleged extortion case in Manila by Mayor Joseph Estrada.
Another Victim of Tanim Bala Airport Scam Surface.
Extortion in Philippine Airports.
Scam has been going on for years but most don't complain out of Fear.
There is a possibility that a Huge Network of Scam Syndicate is operating within Philippine Airports.
According to Michael Ryan White, father of Michael Lane White

They tend to extort tourist on a regular basis.
1)What exactly did the xray scanner personnel see that gave him the impression that there was a bullet in the luggage?
2)Why aren't x-ray scanner video recordings being released to the public?
It should be mandatory that absolutely no airport personnel are allowed to touch a bag
from the Entry Point of Passengers up to Luggage check-in.
It should also be mandatory that no airport personnel are allowed to touch a bag during inspection.
Any corrupt airport personnel can easily palm a bullet secretly and dig their hands inside a pile of clothes in a bag
and suddenly declare that he/she found something in the bag and show it as a bullet.
Airport personnel should not be allowed to touch any part of a bag.
If suspicion of a bullet or a gun is detected, security personnel should inform passengers
that a bullet, gun, or other suspicious object is detected.
If an inspection is needed, the owner should not and should never be forced to open it himself.
Airport Security should actually prevent bag owners from touching the bag.
This is no different from evidence found in a crime scene.
Security personnel ordering passengers to touch their bag is no different from
police commanding suspects to touch the evidence in a crime scene.
These are Absolutely Stupid Airport Security Procedures.
Bag owners should have the right to refuse to touch and
the right to refuse to open a bag
because his/her FINGERPRINT
will leave a mark on the Planted Bullet or any Planted Evidence.
This is a trick used by many Airport Police Scalawags.
If they show agitation, YOU should REFUSE even more.
Another (3rd party) person should be the one who will touch and open the bag.
If a thorough inspection is required,
a close up multiple angle video camera system (area) should be used without any possible dead/blind spot
like the possibility of any parts of a body or any object partially blocking the recording.
A minimum of 3 camera system should be installed in the inspection area to prevent such blind spot.
Clear FullHD 1080p CCTV footage should be available from
Passenger Entry of the Airport (from Vehicles Unloading Area) to Luggae Check in.
If there is even a single second without a CCTV footage, the passenger must be declared Innocent
or the Maximum Penalty should only be a Warning, Nothing More.
A Dead Spot or a Blind Spot in Philippine Airport's CCTV is Absolutely Unacceptable.
Modus Operandi and Technique of Tanim Bala Scam in NAIA (Known as Ta-Ba-SiN):
1) Accomplice Spotters at departure area profile passengers and look for an easy target.
They prefer those with connecting flights.
2) They will distract the Victim and Plant the Bullets
(using expert and highly experienced criminals).
3) Security Xray operators are notified and the Bullets will be detected.
Victims are given a choice either pay up or go to jail.
Amounts vary depending on the perceived paying capacity of Victims.
4) Running Rate is 60-40 sharing.
60% to be shared by involved security officers and 40% for the Spotter Planters Group.
