Cainta couple faces tax evasion

THE Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) filed a criminal complaint before the Department of Justice against spouses Virgilio and Josephine de Lara for alleged willful attempt to evade payment of capital gains tax (CGT) and documentary stamp tax (DST) using a falsified certificate authorizing registration (CAR) in selling a parcel of land in Cainta, Rizal.

The couple was the registered owners of a lot located at Greenwoods Executive Village in Cainta, which they sold to spouses Rolando and Emelita Cagampan, who later resold the same property.
