Police Arrests Female Suspect for Allegedly Swindling Money from Sari-Sari Store
A female suspect has been arrested by the police authorities for allegedly swindling money from a sari-sari store.
Nowadays, robbery has been one of the major problems not only in the Philippines but also in various regions all around the world. Some criminals have no choice but to commit crimes due to lack of job opportunities.
The Philippine government is implementing stricter policy but the crimes continue to exist behind the knowledge of the authorities. The rate of criminality continue to increase despite the stricter rules and regulations.
Installing CCTV cameras at home or business establishments can be a great help to prevent crimes or identify suspects. Criminals will be subject to corresponding sanctions and penalties depending on their violations.
The Talisay City police arrested a 23-year-old woman identified as Genevieve Labuca Abucaño during a hot pursuit operation. The female suspect allegedly swindled money out of a sari-sari store.
The CCTV footage shows Abucaño pretending a customer at a sari-sari store in Purok Kamansi, Upper Candulawan, Talisay City. The culprit bought goods and paid P1,000 but canceled the transaction.
After a few moments, the woman complained and claimed that she was repaid P100 instead of P1,000. The store owner named Arjay Celis Memoracion thought that it was his honest mistake and gave her another P1,000 bill.
However, Memoracion reviewed the CCTV footage and discovered that the female suspect received the P1,000 refund and took another P1,000 from him. The lady culprit may probably face charges of estafa.
