"Kung ako instrumento upang maging ehemplo sa mga kababaihan na maging matatag sa naabuso, nasasaktan at nasasamantalahan. Paglalaban ko at paninindigan."

Vhong is being detained at the NBI Detention Facility.

For the first charge, the bail was set at P36,000. However, for the rape case, it was not bailable, rendering the actor and host unable to post for bail.

Vhong Navarro is a Filipino comedian, actor, dancer, singer, judge, and TV host of ABS-CBN Entertainment Groups. He is part of the dance group Street boys in the Philippines. He is currently hosting the noontime variety show, It's Showtime.

Vhong Navarro would have to spend the night at the NBI detention facility after a second warrant for his arrest came out. The actor surrendered at the NBI office after the first warrant for “acts of lasciviousness” came out. He was waiting for the authorities to release him after posting bail but suddenly, the second warrant for a more serious offense came out. While the second warrant says “no bail recommended” for the actor, his lawyer said they’re going to file a motion for bail.
