The respondents worked under a private firm contracted to operate the NBI’s offsite center. They were suspended while investigation was being conducted, according to a source privy to the probe but who asked not to be named for lack of authority to speak on the matter.
According to the agency, the six respondents were asked to explain the accusations against them when they were all summoned by the NBI-7 through a subpoena on June 14. The respondents, the NBI-7 said, allegedly conspired to collect P220 from each applicant and falsely labeled them as FTJS clearances. For the rest of the applicants, the processing of the clearance, a preemployment requisite, costs P220.On May 26, the NBI-7 received reports from their Information and Communication Technology Service about possible fraudulent activities at their satellite office in Lapu-Lapu City. This prompted lawyer Rennan Augustus Oliva, director of the NBI-7, to deploy a team to investigate the matter.
