A COMPUTER shop producing fake travel authority and medical certificates was raided by operatives of the Baguio City Police Office (BCPO) and the Regional Anti-Cybercrime Unit (Racu) after receiving a tip from a concerned citizen.

Two persons were arrested during the operation. They were identified as Ace Codli Dicca and Wilfred Lohan Pinyuhan, according to a report by BCPO Director Colonel Allen Rae Co.

The travel documents are sold for P150, includes health declaration, travel authority and medical certificate.

Both suspects were arrested after an undercover police officer, who posed as a client, managed to get a travel document with the fake signatures of the BCPO director and a medical health officer.

With the implementation of various community quarantine, medical certificate and travel authority are needed if the travel requires crossing the border going to another province or another region.

The suspects are now temporarily detained at the custodial facility of BCPO Station 7 and will be facing criminal complaints for falsification of public documents.
