                    [Summary] => It was supposed to be just petty thievery but at the rate it is going in Pasay City, it may even be instrumental in acquitting murderers, kidnappers and the likes.


Seized vehicles evidence in cases pending in Pasay City courts are slowly finding their way, part by part, to secondhand car parts dealers, and worse, right under the noses of Pasay City policemen themselves.
