MANILA, Philippines — Naghain ng reklamong cyber libel ang mag-asawang sina Sharon Cuneta at dating Sen. Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan laban sa showbiz columnist na si Cristy Fermin dahil sa mga diumano’y malisyosong ipinagkakalat sa personal nilang buhay.
Biyernes nang magtungo sa Makati City Prosecutor’s Office ang mag -asawa. Matatandaang nagkahiwalay sina Ate Shawi at Kiko ngunit nagkabalikan na kamakakailan.
“[We filed this] dahil sa malicious imputations and defamation of our personal lives. Sabi nga namin, yes we are public figures but we also have rights,” ani Pangilinan sa media.
“Eh ang daming nagsasabi na ‘hindi, pag public figure kayo dapat tiisin na ninyo yung pagsisinungaling at paninira’ but that’s not the case. In fact, we also have private rights, lalo na when the matter is not of public interest.”
Dagdag ni Cuneta, mabigat ito sa kanya l alo na’t 2021 nang subukan niyang makipag-aayos kay Nanay Cristy tungkol sa anumang hindi pagkakaintindihan noon.
Gayunpaman, may hangganan din daw ito nang maapektuhan na ang mga anak nina Sharon at Kiko dahil sa artikulo tungkol sa “Megastar,” kanyang buhay-mag-asawa at pamilya.
Hindi rin napigilan ng singer-actress maging emosyonal nang mapag-usapan ang ilang bagay na nabanggit ni Fermin sa kanyang YouTube channel na “Shobiz Now Na.”
“Kasi kahit hindi toto o, parang siyempre kahit papaano may limang maniniwala,” dagdag pa ng aktres, ito habang idinidiing hindi siya mahilig magsampa ng mga kahalintulad na reklamo.”
“I reached out to her. I had so much affection for her kasi feeling ko ang tanda na natin, ang tanda ko na. I was only looking for good points. And then after a while, parang suddenly I was shocked may konting lalabas, hinusgahan ka na agad. ‘Di ka man lang tinanong. There’s so much unfairness.”
Isang linggo pa lang ang nakalil ipas nang ireklamo rin ng cyber libel ni Bea Alonzo si Fermin at Ogie Diaz. Ang huli ay host din ng sariling show sa Youtube.
Una nang sinabi ni Cristy na inirerespeto niya ang karapatan ni Bea magsampa ng reklamo, habang idinidiing handa siyang harapin ito. Gayunpaman, hindi raw nito mapipigilan ang karapatan niya sa pamamahayag.
COTABATO CITY — A 45-year-old man charged for ten rape and statutory rape cases in Bukidnon province has been traced and arrested in Pagadian City early this week.
Radio reports here on Friday morning quoted Brig. Gen Bowenn Joey Masauding, director of the Police Regional Office-9, as saying that the 45-year-old Jimmy Sotto Balaba, wanted for multiple rape offenses in Bukidnon province in Region 10, was arrested in Barangay Tuburan in Pagadian City, the capital of Zamboanga del Sur.
The suspect, who hails from Malaybalay City in Bukidnon, is facing 10 rape and statutory rape cases pending at the Regional Trial Court Branch 45 in Malaybalay City.
Balaba yielded peacefully when combined operatives from the Bukidnon Provincial Police Office and PRO-9 arrived at a house in Barangay Tuburan in Pagadian City where he stayed for a long time and showed him copies of warrants for his arrest from the RTC Branch 45.
Masauding said the court has not recommended any bail for the temporary release of Balaban.
He was reportedly brought back to Malaybalay City by a police team after his arrest.
