                    [Title] => Lucio Tan wins round one of tax evasion case
                    [Summary] => Nearly 12 years after charges were filed by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) against beer and tobacco magnate Lucio Tan, the country’s largest tax evasion case finally went to trial yesterday, but did not get far on opening day.


Tan is accused of evading over P25 billion in taxes.


Disagreement between the prosecution and the defense over how the charges should be tried shortened the hearing at the Marikina City Metropolitan Trial Court to less than an hour.


Judge Alex Ruiz, of Marikina MTC branch 75, set the next trial date for April 1.
