This was the reason cited by the Office of the Ombudsman and this city’s prosecutor’s office in dismissing separate complaints against a total of 25 people, including police and Coast Guard officers, over an alleged rice smuggling incident here in July last year.


The case started when Caraga policemen intercepted before dawn of July 12 last year the unloading of imported rice from Vietnam from MV Rodeo at the Lumbocan port in Masao district here.
