The criminal complaint was filed by a BIR official directly involved in the investigation. According to the BIR, Ever Bilena is alleged to have a tax deficiency amounting to P10 million, compounded by the involvement in fraudulent transactions.

This incident serves as a reminder from the BIR to all business owners to fulfill their tax obligations promptly to avoid potential criminal charges. The BIR urges entrepreneurs to pay their taxes accurately and promptly to steer clear of legal repercussions.
