In Manila, four Chinese were apprehended for illegally selling antigen test kits.

Last Monday, authorities in Manila arrested four Chinese nationals for illegally selling coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) fast antigen test kits.

The suspects were identified as Anna Chua, 24, Wen Ze Zhou, 27, Cai Hongyu, 52, and Bryant Ong, 42, by Maj. Gen. Albert Ferro, chief of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG), in a statement released Monday. They were arrested in an operation on January 21 at a house along Gen. Solano St. in San Miguel, Manila.

240 Clungene antigen quick test kits for PHP960,000, a cell phone believed to be used for internet selling, and a PHP1,000 bill marked money combined with boodle money were seized from the accused.

The four Chinese nationals, according to Ferro, are members of the Christian Criminal Group, which is involved in the illegal online sale of unauthorized Covid-19 test kits.

The CIDG arrested five members of the organization last week in separate operations in Manila and Quezon City on January 19 and 20, resulting in the confiscation of 500 antigen test kits worth PHP2 million.

The accused have been charged with violating Republic Act 9711, or the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Act of 2009, in respect to FDA Circular No. 2020-016, which prohibits the sale of Covid-19 antigen test kits over the internet.
