Patuloy nating paiigtingin ang ating operasyon laban sa smuggling sa pakikipagtulungan ng iba pang law enforcement agencies," PGen Nartatez said.

"We remain committed to pursuing those who engage in illegal trade while ensuring that every police operation is carried out professionally, lawfully, and with full respect for the rights of all individuals involved. This is part of our responsibility to keep our communities safe and protect the country's economic interests," he added.

The PNP assures the public that it will continue working closely with partner agencies to combat smuggling and other forms of economic sabotage as part of its commitment to Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman, delivering responsive and accountable public service to every Filipino.
