A 45-year-old mother was arrested in Malabon for sexually abusing her 9-year-old daughter by having her appear naked in an online live show.
According to a 24 Oras report by Emil Sumangil on Tuesday, the suspect was caught in an entrapment operation after police officers pretended to be a foreigner purchasing illicit pictures of the victim.
“[Na]engage nga namin itong suspek, nagpanggap kaming foreigner. Ang mga parokyano niya mga foreigner din eh… Hiningan kami ng paunang bayad, initial payment of P1,000 kapalit ng pictures ng minor na yun,” said PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group Police Captain Santiago Roy.
(We engaged with the suspect and pretended to be a foreigner. Her regular customers are also foreigners… She asked us for an initial payment of P1,000 in exchange for pictures of the minor)
She later asked for P10,000 in exchange for videos of the victim.
The suspect was arrested in a hotel room in Malabon, where she conducts lewd live shows of her daughter.
“Ini-induce [niya ang victim] na mag perform ng illicit activities, like mag modelling ng naka nude. Itong bata, pinangakuan nuong una, mag mo-modelling lang… Papakita lang sa mga foreigner at parokyano na nakaswimsuit pero kalaunan pinapahubad na siya,” said Roy.
(She coaxed the victim to perform illicit activities, like modeling in the nude. This child was initially promised that she would only be modeling… She would be presented to foreigners and customers in swimsuits but she would later pose naked.)
“Ito’y inamin naman niya. Ginawa niya ang isang bagay na yun at pinagsisisihan na niya. Gusto raw niyang makatapos sa pag-aaral ang anak niya,” he added.
(She admitted to it. She did it and she said she regretted it. She said that she wanted her child to finish her schooling)
The suspect will undergo inquest proceedings and will face charges for violating the Anti-Online Sexual Abuse or Exploitation Materials Act. — Jiselle Anne Casucian/DVM, GMA Integrated News
