Teenage
brother
rapes 6, 10-year-old sisters
Two girls, aged 6 and 10, are now in the custody of Social Welfare authorities in Siaton, Negros Oriental where they were taken after they were allegedly raped by their older brother.
Special Investigator Jesus Caņete of the Commission on Human Rights said the girls, accompanied by their father, yesterday executed their sworn statements attesting they were raped more than two times by the 18-year-old suspect in their house in Barangay Mantuyop in Siaton.
Caņete said the girls, however, could not remember the
exact dates of the rapes, only that they happened in October after their
mother had left for Manila to seek employment.

SEX SCANDAL CASE After two or three preliminary hearings on the two libel cases filed against businessman Jonathan Lim, Noli Banagodos and the alleged caretaker Nicholas Siloterio, the two women-victims who figured in the sex scandal case have decided to withdraw the complaint through their counsel, Rommel Erames. Erames told prosecutors composed of assistant prosecutors Linley Gabo, Edna Villamil, and Jaena Laguda, during yesterday's preliminary investigation that the women have changed their minds. He said one of the complainants is going abroad and the other
is not ready to stand the rigors of trial without her co-victim. |
