The spies who ended up in the cold

CUSTOMS Commissioner Nicanor Faeldon was not very helpful in shedding the proverbial light on how P6.4 billion in shabu from China was spirited through the so-called green lane in what is considered one of the most corrupt agencies of government.

When Faeldon was asked about the sneak attack on his men that resulted in the contraband ending up in a warehouse several kilometers away from the Port of Manila where it was received in May, he pointed to what he described as shameless politicians who had been lobbying him for jobs for their protégés.
