A former barangay treasurer in Cebu City is under investigation by the Commission on Audit (COA) for the unreported loss of a DSLR camera belonging to the barangay.
The former Barangay treasurer of Babag in the city of Cebu is facing scrutiny due to the unreported loss of a DSLR camera from the barangay. The Commission on Audit ( COA ) report for 2023 and previous years flagged the missing Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera, which was not reported by the barangay treasurer. This involved a breach of protocol regarding government or barangay-owned property. The COA directed the Barangay Captain to initiate an investigation into the missing camera .
If evidence is found, cases should be filed against the responsible officials. According to COA's verification on August 20, 2024, the DSLR went missing during the turnover period from the previous treasurer to the current one in September 2023. The current treasurer stated they had no knowledge of the camera's replacement. During the COA's investigation, the former barangay treasurer admitted to using the camera and possibly entrusting it to the former Barangay Secretary for photo documentation of various barangay activities and programs. The former barangay treasurer informed the state auditor that the former barangay secretary resigned in August 2023, leaving no documentation regarding the turnover of the DSLR camera to either the current barangay secretary or the former treasurer. This is why the COA flagged the matter for recovery
