Dahil sa Derogatory reports mula IG at EG ay agad na nagpalabas ng re-Lodgment Control Orders si District Collector Maritess T. Martin laban sa 30 na 5×20’ containers na una nang idineklarang slipper outsoles at styrene butadiene rubber subalit hinihinalang naglalaman ito ng asukal.
Sa sinagawang non-intrusive examination at 100% physical examination ay nalantad ang 15,648 bags/sacks ng Refined Sugar.
Dahilan upang irekomenda na mag-isyu ng Warrant of Seizure and Detention laban sa kargamento.
Kasama sina Port of Subic District Collector Maritess Martin, Department of Agriculture (DA) Assistant Secretary James Layug, at kinatawan ng Sugar Regulatory Agency sa isinagawang physical examination.
