Television host Willie Revillame posted P12,000 bail yesterday for his temporary liberty after the city prosecutor’s office charged him with violating Republic Act 9262 or the law penalizing violence against women and children before the Quezon City regional trial court.
The court earlier adopted a policy banning journalists from getting details on cases involving women and children to protect their right to privacy.
According to radio station dzMM, the charges filed by city prosecutor Gibson Araulla Jr. stemmed from a complaint by his estranged wife, Floracie “Liz” Almoro.
