Philippine National Police (PNP) chief PGen. Guillermo Eleazar commended cops for the arrest of two suspects involved in the manufacturing and sale of fake 2019 Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) vaccination cards and negative swab test results in Quiapo.
The Manila Police District (MPD) identified the suspects as Jimmy Santisima and Edito Pan.
"Sa kabila ng ating mahigpit na babala, hindi natinag ang mga taong ito kaya nararapat lamang na sila ay papanagutin sa kanilang kalokohan dahil buhay ng mga tao at kapakanan ng ating bansa ang nakataya dito," Eleazar said in a statement.
"Inaasahan ko ang patuloy na agresibong kampanya ng ating kapulisan hindi lamang laban sa mga taong gumagawa at nagbebenta ng mga pekeng vaccination cards at RT-PCR kundi pati na rin sa mga taong bumibili at gumagamit ng mga ito," he added.
During the raid on Friday, September 3, MPD operatives found the computers used by the suspects along with the template for the fake swab test results from San Lazaro Hospital and vaccination cards from Pasay City.
PNP believes that the suspects also make fake birth certificates and marriage contracts since the raid team also discovered ake dry seal of universities and government agencies.
