February 3, 2010, 4:34pmThe Bureau of Customs (BoC) threatened to file criminal charges against officials of Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corp. (PSPC) for their no intent to pay the P7.3-billion back excise taxes even as the temporary restraining order (TRO) issued by the Court of Tax Appeals will lapse on February 9.
Customs Commissioner Napoleon Morales said BoC plans to sue Pilipinas Shell’s officers because they have committed fraud for the oil firm’s importation of catalytic cracked gasoline (CCG) and Light CCG from 2004 to October, 2009.
