Palma and the confiscated firearms were presented to the media at the PNP Headquarters in Camp Crame on Thursday.
Tal-Ala is confined at an intensive care unit of a hospital in Bacolod City due to hypertension.
The smuggled goods were intercepted after the U.S. Homeland Security gave a tip to the Bureau of Customs.
