The proceeds will be remitted to the Bureau of the Treasury, bringing the total amount recovered from the entire 13-vehicle fleet to P114.74 million.
“Today’s completion of the disposal of all remaining Discaya vehicles reflects the bureau’s firm commitment to transparency, accountability, and decisive action in the management of forfeited assets,” Customs commissioner Ariel Nepomuceno said in a statement.
“More importantly, it demonstrates our continued efforts to ensure that government resources are properly utilized in a manner that serves the best interests of the Filipino people,” he added.
Customs officials said the negotiated sale is part of an ongoing effort to legally and efficiently clear abandoned and forfeited goods under existing customs laws.
The final sale remains subject to formal approval by the secretary of the Department of Finance, per standard customs regulations.
