The operation stemmed from the complaint of a buyer wherein the said suspect used falsified documents as proof of the properly they were selling. Suspects kept on demanding the final payment prompting the complainant to sought for assistance from CIDG Baguio CFU who conceived an Entrapment Operation that resulted to their arrest after receiving marked money
