Ex-CAAP worker held for faking airport IDs

The National Bureau of Investigation on Friday arrested a former employee of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) for forging identifications cards that allow access to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia), from his computer shop in Pasay City.

It was the second crackdown this month against alleged forgers specializing in Naia IDs.

Three weeks earlier, the NBI also cornered another man operating a photo and printing shop just a few blocks from airport for allegedly selling fake access passes and selling them for P100 each.

In the latest operation, agents of the NBI’s Criminal Investigation Division raided the Warrior computer shop owned by Wilbert de Leon Guerra on Apollo Street, Pasay.

The bureau earlier placed Guerra under surveillance on a complaint from the Manila International Airport Authority, state operator of Naia.

NBI said Guerra faced charges for falsification of public documents. Nancy C. Carvajal
