Border Control and Intelligence Unit (BCIU) said the passenger, a 28-year-old Israeli national of Philippine descent, was intercepted at the NAIA terminal 3 where he was supposed to board a Cebu Pacific flight to Denpasar, Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The BI-BCIU said that after presenting himself to the immigration officer at the BI counter for departure formalities, the man handed over a Philippine passport, which turned out to be fake, as evidenced by the glaring irregularities immediately noticeable in the passport\u2019s bio-page.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen asked by the immigration officer how and where he obtained the said passport, the passenger readily admitted that he procured the same from a fixer for a fee of P10,000,\u201d BI-BCIU overall deputy chief Joseph Cueto reported.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Upon verification with the BI\u2019s forensic documents laboratory, it was confirmed that the entire document is indeed counterfeit.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!--
