DPWH brass alerts public about persons using his name for illegal deals
AN official of the Fourth Engineering District of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) based in Tuliao, Sta. Barbara town alerted the public on November 28 about a group or an unscrupulous individual using his name for illegal activities.
OIC-Assistant District Engineer Eldred Mislang issued a disclaimer after he received a report of someone reportedly contacting offices and contractors of the DPWH in Pangasinan using his name.
Using the mobile phone number 0945-341-2072, the poseur reportedly claims to be “Assistant District Engineer Mislang” to obtain vital details about DPWH projects, or soliciting money or favors on behalf of the DPWH.
The DPWH asked the public that should they get calls from anyone asking for favors or for and on his behalf, not to entertain such calls.
”Let it be known to the public that ADE Eldred M. Mislang is not involved in any solicitation or any act of extortion from anyone, as these are unauthorized and unlawful, and should be totally disregarded,” DPWH’s disclaimer read.
Mislang said he issued the disclaimer in order to clear his name and protect the public from misrepresentation, fraud and illegal acts. (Leonardo Micua)
