DOJ finds probable cause indict Jeane Napoles for tax evasion

The question is: Where is she now?

“The Department of Justice (DOJ) has found probable cause to indict Jeane Napoles, daughter of alleged pork barrel scam brains Janet Lim Napoles, for tax evasion,” reports Ina Reformina on ABS-CBNnews.com.

The report noted: “The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) earlier charged the younger Napoles with violations of the National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC) for an alleged total tax liability of P32.06 million, inclusive of surcharges and interests, for taxable years 2011 and 2012.”

BIR Commissioner Kim Henares pointed out that the young Napoles “was able to acquire a condominium unit at the Ritz Carlton in Los Angeles, California, worth P54.73 million; and has a share, equivalent to P1.49 million, in a Bayambang, Pangasinan property purchased in 2012.”

Henares further explained, “She, however, did not file any income tax return (ITR) in 2011 and 2012; nor were there any records of returns filed that will prove that gifts, bequests or devices were given to her. There was no donor’s tax or estate tax paid either.”
