“Natulog 'yung bata sa bahay nitong suspek at doon nangyari 'yung pangmo-molestiya. And the next morning, nag-report itong bata sa kaniyang mga magulang. And ‘yun, na-file-an ng kaso itong suspek,” stated Police Colonel Felipe Maraggun, Provincial Director of the Rizal Provincial Police Office.
The suspect admitted to having had carnal encounters with the victim on three occasions but insisted that they were consensual, citing a supposed romantic relationship.
He claimed they had been in a relationship for a month and had met online.
“Jowa ko po. Alam niya po, kagustuhan niya po ‘yun ang nangyari. Hindi po alam kasi ng magulang na tumakas sa lola niya, tumira po sa amin ng isang linggo. Isang linggo na po ‘yun, may nangyari sa amin,” the suspect stated.

“Inimbitahan nila 'yung biktima na 10 taong gulang at forcibly minolestiya. At nakatutok 'yung patalim dito sa bata. Buti na lang may dumaan ng kapitbahay, nakita sila doon,” Maraggun stated.
In response to the previous grave threat charge, the suspect claimed, “Ang unang kaso ko, pagbabanta lang po ‘yun. Mag-ano lang po kami sa bundok, kakain lang po kami. Trip lang po ‘yun. Trip lang po talaga.”
The accused is currently detained at the custodial facility of the Antipolo Component City Police Station.
