Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) Commissioner Romeo D. Lumagui Jr. reported that the Department of Justice (DOJ) has ruled in favor of the complaint filed by the Run After Fake Transactions Taskforce (RAFT) of the BIR against Ever Bilena Cosmetics, Inc. (Ever Bilena) for the latter's use of Ghost Receipts in its tax declarations. The DOJ has filed  four (4) criminal Informations before the trial courts in Quezon City against Ever Bilena, which included criminal charges against Dioceldo S. Sy, President, and Miami S. Siytaoco, Treasurer, for tax evasion and failure to supply correct and accurate information in its tax returns. 

"The BIR once again commends the illustrious men and women of the DOJ in ruling in favor of our complaint against Ever Bilena. This shows that even the largest corporations in the Philippines should not use Ghost Receipts in their tax declarations. Warrants of arrest are expected to be issued against the responsible corporate officers of Ever Bilena." Commissioner Lumagui stated.

The BIR and the DOJ continue to make strides in their fight against Ghost Receipts. Even the largest corporations have been audited, prosecuted, and its responsible officers subsequently arrested as long as there is a finding by the RAFT taskforce that the corporation used Ghost Receipts to illegally lessen their taxes.

Recently, the DOJ ruled in favor of the BIR complaint against Hilmarc's Construction Corporation, one of the largest government contractors in the country. Ever Bilena will be included in the list of large companies that will be prosecuted in court for its use of Ghost Receipts.
