00:00A man was arrested because of a minor who is the son of his live-in partner in Antipolo City.
00:08The offender denied the charges.
00:10He was just entertained by the family of the person he was with.
00:14Always first in the news, EJ Gomez, Exclusive.
00:20Police, we are from Antipolo. You are arresting us.
00:23Please be quiet and don't make noise.
00:26The 36-year-old man in Antipolo City was not allowed to be cornered and arrested
00:32because of a minor who is the son of his live-in partner in Antipolo City.
00:37The offender was arrested in Barangay De La Paz at 2 p.m. on Monday.
00:42Based on the investigation, the 13-year-old victim was repeatedly harassed and molested by the offender
00:49for more than a year.
00:52Our victim is saying that he has been harassing this suspect since June 2023.
00:58Until December 2024 or January 2025, this child filed a complaint and we were able to file the last case.
01:10The offender denied the charges.
01:13He is a construction worker.
01:15The victim said that he was just doing his job as a construction worker.
01:18He ended up getting scolded because he was just accompanying his friends instead of going to school.
01:25When I got home, his mother told him.
01:32Now that he is being arrested, he said something else.
01:38He said that he was moving.
01:41The offender even insisted that he was just being nice because the family was against his relationship with his live-in partner.
01:48I really didn't like the mother and the child.
01:53I didn't touch them.
01:55I didn't molest that child.
01:57Even if they don't like me, do I still expect them to like me?
02:03I hope they know the truth first.
02:06I am innocent.
02:08The GMA Integrated News is still trying to get a statement from the victim and his family.
02:14The man is facing six counts of statutory rape and four counts of acts of lasciviousness.
