Customs officials, employees who aided Discayas will not be spared — Customs chief
Customs Commissioner Ariel F. Nepomuceno also issued a similar warning to imported car dealers where the Discaya, owners of the Alpha & Omega General Contractor and Development Corporation, may have bought some of their vehicles following results of an initial investigation that the importation papers of majority of the 28 luxury cars was nowhere to be found.
"If there are deficiencies in the payment of duties and taxes or their documents have been altered or doctored or they have contacts or in cahoots with [customs] insiders, I assure the public that we will look into it and make sure that those liable will be made to answer [for their crimes]," added Nepomuceno.
The Customs chief said that he has strict orders to the bureau's investigating team to "validate and revalidate" all its findings to ensure factual findings, adding that the process may take some time because each of the 28 cars was being subjected to careful scrutiny, including the serial numbers and import entries., This news data comes from:http://pi-gi-iach-hwbk.xs888999.com
