Charges filed vs. guard for raping, wounding girl

-
Rape with serious physical injuries charge was filed yesterday against Alesna Jacinto, the security guard who held hostage and allegedly raped a 14-year-old girl inside an electrical shop in Dumlog, Talisay City last Sunday.

The victim's parents, Christopher and Marissa, filed the case at the Municipal Trial Court in Talisay City after receiving reports that medical examination showed positive results that the girl was raped, said PO2 Brenda Espina, assistant women's desk officer of the city police.

However, the medical test results could not be attached yet to the complaint because the doctor that conducted the examination was not around yesterday and has yet to signed the results.

Espina narrated that the girl, after attending Mass that day, went home but had a chat first with a neighbor near her house when suddenly Jacinto, allegedly inebriated at the time, approached and asked her angrily what she was talking about.

The girl was shocked and did not know what to do when Jacinto ordered her to kneel down, after which he hit the girl's head with a broken bottle.

Mao ra gyud to ang iyang gikasuk-an, nangutana siya'g unsay gipanabi sa bata (That's all what he got angry at; he just wanted to know what the girl was chatting about), Espina said.

Christopher reportedly saw what happened and tried to stop Jacinto but the latter got angrier and pointed his gun to the victim's father.

Christopher ran and asked help from their neighbors while the victim's two siblings came and also asked Jacinto to stop. But the suspect instead pointed his gun and told them to leave the place.

Shortly after the victim's siblings left, Jacinto dragged the girl to the electrical shop where he allegedly raped the girl.

Responding policemen then forcibly opened the shop's door and found the girl already naked and bathed in her own blood.

They then ordered Jacinto to let go of the wounded girl, but he refused prompting Insp. Gil Limosnero to shoot his feet to immobilize him.

Jacinto and his victim were both taken to the Don Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center. - Norvie S. Misa
