Napoles’ daughter faces P32.1-M tax evasion case

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) on Thursday filed a P32.1-million tax evasion case against daughter of suspected pork barrel scheme mastermind Janet Lim-Napoles.

In its complaint before the Department of Justice (DOJ), the BIR said Jeane Catherine Napoles acquired properties in 2011 and 2012, including a P54.7-million house in Los Angeles, California and a P1.5-million farm lot in Bayambang, Pangasinan, properties that went unreported because she did not file income tax returns (ITRs) for those years.
