A JOINT operation by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) and the Philippine National Police-Criminal Investigation and Detection Group led to the arrest of four suspects for alleged manufacture and sale of fake license plates in San Ildefonso, Bulacan.
Acting LTO chief Greg Pua said the operation was carried out last Saturday, July 12, in keeping with an instruction of President Marcos to run after scammers and other criminal elements in the transportation sector.
Pua said the operation was implemented upon confirmation by the LTO Investigation and Intelligence Division (IID) about the illegal activities of the suspects.
“We immediately coordinated with the CIDG to conduct an operation against these people and this resulted in their arrest and the confiscation of the fake plates,” he said.
