The National Privacy Commission (NPC) is working with the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC) to track down the person who sent a bomb threat to the agency Friday (May 12).
In a statement, NPC said it does not yet have any information on the motive behind the bomb threat.
“We do not have any information yet regarding the individual’s intention or whether the threat is related to any case that NPC handles,” the agency said.
Earlier in the day, a netizen posted a comment on NPC’s Facebook post which read, “Time bomb set on your building starts now.”
The threat prompted the evacuation of employees from NPC’s office inside the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) complex in Pasay City. Work was later suspended by NPC chairman John Henry Naga to ensure the safety of personnel.
