Malacañang denied on Friday the existence of a memorandum adopting a "no contact apprehension" for transport network vehicle services (TNVS) drivers or operators.

A supposed Memorandum No. 636 on the purported no contact apprehension circulated online.

"The document is fake," Presidential Spokesperson Sslvador Panelo said in a statement.

He said the Office of the President advises the public that Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea has not signed or caused the release of such document. Celerina Monte/DMS
