Customs files smuggling charges vs Subic Smugglers
Subic Global International was charged for the unlawful release of three units of used luxury vehicles, including a Porsche Boxster ’98 model, Porsche ’96 model and Porsche 911 ’94 model worth P2.3 million from the Subic Bay Freeport.
Customs authorities on Monday filed smuggling charges against officials of an oil company as well as importers of luxury vehicles and onions before the Department of Justice (DOJ) for allegedly depriving the government of P182 million in duties and taxes.
Unioil officials, Rell International Trading and a Subic-based firm, Global International, were charged before the DOJ Task Force on Anti Smuggling.
Officials of Oilink who allegedly violated the Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines were: Paul Chi Ting Co, chairman of Unioil and Oilink, another firm earlier involved in smuggling; Kenneth Pundadera, Manuel T. Co. Sally Co, Stanley Tan, and Roschelle Vivencio; Oilink directors Liza R. Magaway, Janice Co, Vivencio Albano, Greg Yu, and Edwin Agustin
It can be recalled that the Philippine National Police intercepted several oil tankers in Bataan which were loaded with gasoline and diesel products from the depot of Oilink in Mariveles, which was, at the time, subject to a warrant of seizure and detention due to an administrative case.
However, Unioil representatives argued that the goods were not included in the items ordered seized by the bureau and explained that withdrawal was above board and cleared by the bureau.
But, it was learned that the permit was only granted for the withdrawal of base oil, and not diesel and gasoline, prompting enforcement authorities to seize the tankers along with its contents. The apprehended goods were worth P175 million.
The proprietor of Rell International Trading, Baraulio Jonson Lagrisola, was charged for failure to secure import permit and plant quarantine clearance from the Bureau of Plant Industry for the shipment of onions.
On the other hand, Global International officials, namely Luisito Loloa, Alexander dela Paz, Paul Edwin Kimpo, Edgardo Santos, Francisco Arce, Peter Mutuc, Roland Cabatic, and Alex Bautista, Land Transportation Office (LTO) guard, and driver Pablito Quijano and a certain Karlo are facing charges for violation of BP No. 143, otherwise known as “An Act Providing for the issuance of permanent Number Plates to Owners of Motor Vehicles and Trailer.
