MANILA, Philippines – Nagbabala ang Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) sa publiko at mga tauahan nito laban sa umano’y hindi awtorisadong paggamit sa pangalan ni Undersecretary for Public Safety Jed Patrick Mabilog sa fraudulent transactions at solicitation activities.
“Reports received by the Department indicate that certain persons have been falsely representing themselves as being connected with the Office of the Undersecretary for Public Safety without proper authority,” saad sa pahayag ng ahensya nitong Martes, Mayo 26.
Hindi na nagbigay pa ng konteksto ang ahensya sa kung paano ginagamit ang pangalan ni Mabilog.
“The DILG emphasizes that neither the Department nor any of its officials authorizes any individual or group to solicit money, donations, favors, endorsements, financial assistance, or facilitation of transactions on their behalf,” dagdag pa.
“The Office neither engages in nor tolerates any such fraudulent schemes,” giit ng DILG.
Maaari naman umanong maharap sa administrative, civil at criminal charges ang hindi awtorisado at fraudulent na paggamit ng pangalan ni Mabilog o ng Office of the Undersecretary for Public Safety.
Si Mabilog ay itinalagang DILG undersecretary ngayong buwan. RNT/JGC
