A 44-year-old man was arrested outside the Baclaran Church in Paranaque City on November 20 for allegedly raping his minor-aged stepdaughter.
According to the report of GMA Regional TV’s Sarah Hilomen Velasco in “Saksi” on Thursday, the suspect is facing six counts of statutory rape for repeatedly raping the victim when she was just 15 years old in 2023.
The suspect was arrested by operatives of the Basud Municipal Police just right after he attended Mass.
Police said the suspect was moving from one place to another in Cavite until he was caught walking outside the church. The suspect is considered the most wanted person in Basud, Camarines Norte.
The suspect was already brought to the custodial facility of the Basud police station. He refused to issue a comment on the allegations against him. — Vince Angelo Ferreras/JMA, GMA Integrated News
