40 BFP officials to face raps over rigged bidding, extortion - Remulla
Manila Bulletin
|February 1, 2026
At least 40 current and former Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) officials who served on its Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) from 2005 to 2025 will face criminal complaints over alleged rigged procurement deals and other forms of corruption, the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) said Thursday night, Jan. 29.
DILG Secretary Juanito Victor “Jonvic” Remulla said the department uncovered a “bid rigging” that allegedly involved “billions and billions of pesos” within the fire bureau. A full report about it will be released next week.
He disclosed that a former Quezon City fire marshal will be implicated for allegedly forcing a business establishment in Cubao to buy huge quantities of fire extinguishers as a condition for compliance.
