METRO Manila Development Authority officer-in-charge Thomas Orbos on Monday ordered the immediate relief of two constables of the agency’s Traffic Discipline Office for corrupt practices.
Traffic constable Victor D’Argandonia and traffic auxiliary Ringo Gozon are now facing summary dismissal from the service after Orbos, himself, caught the two enforcers committing administrative infractions near SM Centerpoint in Quezon City last Saturday.
After verification, it was found out that the two enforcers were not on official duty as D’Argandonia is designated as a night shift custodian and therefore not allowed to apprehend traffic violators, while Gozon’s shift is from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. only.
