Close-up of female airport employee "swallowing" $300 from a passenger, an unexpected way to destroy evidence

It is known that the theft occurred at an airport in the Philippines. Accordingly, after going through the security gate, a man discovered that 300 USD (about 7 million VND) was "flying away". When I checked the camera again, I discovered an unexpected truth.

According to information published in Mothership, the incident occurred on September 8, 2023 at departure gate number 1, Ninoy Aquino International Airport (also known as Manila International Airport because it serves the capital Manila). and surrounding areas) in the Philippines.

A male passenger named Cai placed his handbag on a tray for it to pass through the scanner during the security check process at the airport. After that, a female security officer brought the tray containing Mr. Cai's bag to a table to check it by hand again.

After checking Mr. Cai's bag, this female employee turned away with her left hand clenched, seemingly hiding something inside.

Then she quickly put the object inside her b.ody and returned to the examination table. At this time, Mr. Cai suddenly discovered that his wallet had been opened and several coins worth up to 300 USD (equivalent to more than 7 million VND) were missing.

Mr. Cai confronted the female security officer along with another security officer about this matter. At this time, a scanner operator gave a bottle of water to the other female security officer.

Just after receiving the bottle of water, the female security officer turned her back and tried to swallow a few bills by shoving them into her mouth. But she did not know that right in front of her was a security camera, so all of her actions were recorded.

After that, the passenger discovered that his wallet was open and there was no m.oney inside, so he questioned those present at the screening area.

The official report from the airport also showed that the manager walked up to the female security officer just as she was trying to swallow the coins, apparently to ensure the destruction of evidence. Thus, both the manager and the scanner operator could be accomplices of the female security officer in this m.oney theft.

On September 21, Philippine airport authorities ordered charges against the female security officer. Currently, the female security officer suspected of stealing m.oney from passenger Cai has been suspended from work.

This is the third widely publicized theft incident at Manila airport in 2023. Previously, a group of airport security staff were discovered stealing m.oney from Thai tourists.

The above group of employees is accused of taking 20,000 Japanese yen (146 USD) from a Thai tourist on February 22. A Thai witness filmed the incident and posted it on Facebook. The video quickly went viral, showing security screeners taking m.oney and stuffing it into a bag, but then returning it to the passenger when resisted.

Five days later, another screener was arrested for stealing a Chinese passenger's watch. According to CNN Philippines, the employee named Valeriano Diaz Ricaplaza initially denied the crime, but the video from the security camera showed that he took the tourist's watch while the guest went through the security gate.

To deal with theft, the Philippine Office of Transportation Security (OTS) banned employees from wearing jackets; Uniform clothes are not allowed to have additional pockets.

In a survey in July, Manila airport was ranked the 8th worst airport in the world by hotel and property management company Casago based on passengers' queuing experiences.

In November 2022, travel website Hawaiianislands.com called it the third most stressful airport in Southeast Asia and Oceania.

The Philippine Office of Transportation Security (OTS) announced that it will resolve the matter accordingly following the complaint against the security officers. Those who are fired will face criminal charges for the above behavior.

Senator Grace Poe, Chairwoman of the Philippine Senate Public Service Committee, called on the OTS to review the salary schedule of security officers because she said low salaries could be the motive for the above-mentioned employees to ask for m.oney from the government. guest.
