Mga paunang alert sa hangganan, humarang sa dalawang wanted

Humarang ang Bureau of Immigration sa dalawang dayuhang wanted na tumatangkang pumasok sa bansa gamit ang Advanced Passenger Information System. Ang isang Mongolian na suspek sa droga at isang Turkish na hinahabol dahil sa sekswal na pagsasamantala ay nahuli sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Ito ay nangyari noong Enero 1, 2026, batay sa mga pahayag ng ahensya.

Sa isang pahayag noong Enero 2, 2026, sinabi ng Bureau of Immigration na nahuli ang dalawang pasahero sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 bago pa man sila makapasok sa bansa. Ang unang isa ay si Battulga Ganbold, 30-anyos na Mongolian national na dumating mula sa Vietnam. Ayon sa mga tala ng imigrasyon, may hawak siyang warrant of arrest sa South Korea dahil sa drug-related offense.

Ang pangalawa naman ay si Ercan Mutlu, 37-anyos na Turkish national na dumating mula sa Japan. Siya ay hinahabol sa Türkiye dahil sa mga kaso ng sexual exploitation at prostitution, ayon sa Bureau of Immigration.

"The system generated advance alerts while the two passengers were still airborne," ani Melvin Mabulac, deputy spokesperson at APIS Operations Center chief. Agad na nag-coordinate ang APIS Operations Center sa BI Interpol Unit upang i-verify ang mga international warrants bago ipaalam sa mga immigration officer sa NAIA Terminal 1. Dahil dito, nahuli ang mga ito pagdating.

Dagdag pa ni Mabulac, ang APIS ay nagbibigay-daan sa pagtukoy ng high-risk passengers bago pa man sila humapag sa Pilipinas. Ito ay isang sistema na nagbibigay ng advanced intelligence at nagpapahusay sa koordinasyon ng mga ahensya ng batas. Ang donasyon nito ay mula sa United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism na sinusuportahan ng gobyerno ng Australia.

Ang insidente na ito ay nagpapakita ng epekto ng mga enhanced border patrol measures sa pagpigil ng mga wanted criminals mula sa pagpasok sa bansa.
