The United Filipino Seafarers group files a case for violation of RA 3019 or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act, and RA 7080 or the Plunder Law, on July 9, 2024 against the officials of the Maritime Industry Authority before the Office of the Ombudsman. The group said that certain officials allegedly approved the extension of special permits to a Chinese dredging company beyond the two-year limitation set by Marina Circular 04-11. It added that the reported arrests of Chinese illegally working for the said dredging company pose a security threat to several Philippine military agencies such as the Philippine Navy and Philippine Coast Guard, whose offices are near the dredging site in Manila Bay.
