                    [Summary] => Public Works and Highways Secretary Simeon Datumanong has relieved 41 department officials and employees implicated in the P150-million vehicle repair scam, including three members of the panel that investigated the anomaly.


In an order released yesterday, Datumanong said the relieved personnel, who are all based at the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH)’s central office in Manila, were found "to have either benefited from a reimbursement scheme or failed to perform their duty in preventing such irregularity."
