A female passenger was r@ped and robbed by a Transport Network Vehicle Service (TNVS) driver she had booked in the early morning of June 15, according to a report from News5.

The victim said she had fallen asleep during the ride.

She awoke to a horrifying scene—finding the driver already on top of her. She tried to resist but was hit in the stomach.

The driver then took her bag and necklace before she managed to escape and call for help.

The victim sought the assistance of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), which swiftly launched an operation.

With help from the TNVS platform, the suspect was identified and arrested.

The victim was able to positively identify him during the investigation.

The suspect later confessed to the crime, stating, “Yung pasahero ko na nahulog sa upuan, bumaba ako, huminto ako sa gilid, bumaba ako, tinulungan ko siya na makaano ng maayos. Tapos nung time na yon, dun na ako nadala sa tukso kaya nagawa ko yun.”

He admitted that he was "tempted" and gave in to his urges during the stop.

The case has sparked outrage and raised concerns over rider safety, especially for women using ride-hailing apps.

Authorities are urging TNVS companies to implement stricter screening and monitoring protocols for their drivers to ensure passenger safety at all times.
