Store Owner Files Voyeurism Complaint Against Student in Muntinlupa City

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Muntinlupa, the owner of a Korean store filed a complaint of voyeurism against a student who has been caught on video taking upskirt pictures of her, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. More recently, the Mayor of Muntinlupa expressed support for the victim.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A student in Muntinlupa is facing a complaint for voyeurism after being caught on video taking upskirt photos of a Korean store owner.

The victim, a businesswoman from Barangay Putatan, said the incident occurred on Sept. 21 inside her Korean store in Soldiers Hills.

The suspect posed as a customer and, while she was preparing his order, allegedly bumped her from behind. When she turned, she saw him intentionally taking photos of her intimate area.

She pretended not to notice and later reviewed CCTV footage in her office, confirming the act. She then asked a helper to seek assistance from the nearby barangay satellite office.

Barangay personnel responded, and the suspect allegedly admitted to committing the acts several times.

Although the parties were set to meet before the Lupon Tagapamayapa, the victim opted to file a direct complaint. She went to the Muntinlupa police’s Women and Children Protection Unit, which forwarded the case to the city prosecutor’s office.

For additional insight, watch the GMA News video below.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, do you think young adults who possess gadgets should be taught lessons to refrain from committing acts of voyeurism? Did you witness any incidents of voyeurism locally over the past six months?

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

carlocarrasco

There definitely is such a thing as illegally voting in elections in the United States. Since Donald Trump returned as US President in 2025, the government has been unrelenting on pushing back against illegal immigration while restoring the integrity of American elections. That said, an immigrant from the Philippines pleaded guilty to voting illegally in the US Presidential election of 2024 and it happened just months after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under failed US President Joe Biden approved her for the green card, according to a news report by Breitbart.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Breitbart news report. Some parts in boldface…

Last week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that 37-year-old Evelyn Miller of the Philippines, who resided in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to illegal voting.

On Monday, Breitbart News learned that Miller, who was approved for a green card by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in July 2024, registered to vote on October 9, 2024, and illegally voted in the presidential election on November 5, 2024.

“This alien from the Philippines pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election in Pennsylvania,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. “Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of HSI, as well as our partners at the Department of Justice, this alien will soon face justice for her efforts to subvert our elections. American elections are for Americans only.”

In the investigation, Miller confessed to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents that she registered to vote online ahead of the election and voted in person on Election Day.

For additional details from the DOJ regarding Evelyn Miller, click https://www.justice.gov/usao-edpa/pr/lehigh-county-woman-pleads-guilty-illegal-voting

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Does this case of illegal voting convince you that there should be more restrictions to prevent green card holders from voting in any election? What do you think is the ideal punishment for green card holders who actually voted? Are you convinced that Democrats would do anything to allow illegal voting in order to gain power?

Armed Man Arrested in Parañaque City for Causing Trouble

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, a man armed with an improvised firearm who caused trouble in a local community was arrested by police officers, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A housekeeping worker was arrested after allegedly brandishing an improvised firearm and challenging residents to a fight in Parañaque City on Tuesday evening, Sept. 15.

The suspect, identified only as alias “Julius,” 31, a resident of Barangay Moonwalk, was arrested at around 6:20 p.m. on Saudi Arabia Street, Barangay Don Bosco, Parañaque City.

Police said a concerned citizen alerted officers conducting patrol in the area about a man who was allegedly intoxicated, causing a disturbance, and carrying a homemade firearm known as “sumpak”.

Responding officers reportedly saw Julius walking along the street while holding and brandishing the improvised firearm and shouting at nearby residents.

The officers ordered him several times to put down the weapon, but he allegedly resisted, prompting them to arrest him.

A search of the suspect reportedly yielded a heat-sealed sachet containing about 0.08 grams of suspected shabu, with an estimated price of P544. Also recovered were the improvised firearm and two live ammunition.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that violent crime will get worse in the next six months? Do you consider Parañaque a hot spot for loose firearms and improvised weapons?

Four Chinese Nationals Arrested in Parañaque City over Illegal Drugs

Four Chinese Nationals Arrested in Parañaque City over Illegal Drugs

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, elements of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit and arrested four Chinese nationals over illegal drugs which the authorities confiscated, according to a GMA Network news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

Four Chinese nationals were arrested after the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit in Parañaque City allegedly being used to order and consume illegal drugs.

According to a report by John Consulta on “24 Oras Weekend,” the NBI Cybercrime Division arrested one woman and three men after opening the door of the target unit during an operation.

The agency searched the four rooms of the condominium and recovered high-grade marijuana or kush, from a side table and suspected shabu on the bathroom floor.

Drug paraphernalia and suspected drug residue were also found inside a cabinet in another room.

The NBI said its Cybercrime Division had monitored the suspects allegedly using cyberspace to order various types of illegal drugs, which were then delivered to the condominium disguised among food deliveries and other online orders.

“We monitored individuals through our Cybercrime Division who were using cyberspace to order drugs—various kinds of drugs,” NBI Director Melvin Matibag said.

The four suspects were subjected to drug testing, with two testing positive, according to the NBI. The two who tested positive were subsequently subjected to inquest proceedings for alleged violations of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

Matibag also reminded the suspects that the use of cannabis and methamphetamine is illegal in the Philippines.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that there could be more Chinese nationals who could be doing criminal activities within the city? Do you think Parañaque is absolutely not a drug-free city at all?

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

Mayor Ruffy Biazon signed an ordinance establishing the Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City, a 24-hour institution for the rehabilitation of children in conflict with the law (CICL).

Muntinlupa Ordinance 2026-133, passed by the City Council, institutionalizes the Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City as a juvenile justice welfare and rehabilitation center, setting the system, protocols, and management of the facility.

Under the local law, the center will be managed by the city government’s Social Services Department (SSD), providing short-term residential care and rehabilitation for CICL who are awaiting court disposition of their cases or transfer to other agencies or jurisdictions.

The facility will also offer rehabilitation services “under a structured therapeutic environment with the end view of reintegrating them into their families and communities as socially functioning individuals.”

Physical mobility of residents may be restricted pending resolution of their court cases.

Under Muntinlupa Ordinance 2024-280, or the City Child Protection Policy Ordinance, Bahay Pag-asa is mandated to formulate its own child protection policy for children below 15, or those above 15 but not more than 18 years old, “who have been charged in court or are undergoing trial for the commission of a crime, and are currently under the rehabilitation and diversion program of the SSD through Bahay Pag-asa, or are otherwise undergoing a community intervention program.”

ICC President Akane Calls Her Organization the “Last Bastion of the Rule of Law”

ICC President Akane Calls Her Organization the “Last Bastion of the Rule of Law”

carlocarrasco

Tomoko Akane, the incumbent president of the International Criminal Court, called her organization in The Hague the “last bastion of the rule of law” as she labeled America’s sanctions against her illegal and unacceptable, according to a news article by Jiji Press.

This past August, the United States sanctioned Akane and ICC trial lawyer Abdoul Seye of Senegal which is a part of their campaign to dismantle the organization’s threat to American sovereignty. Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae called the sanctions against Akane (a Japanese citizen) “very unfortunate”. It remains to be seen how the ICC sanctions will impact the current state of US-Japan relations and cooperation.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the entire Jiji Press news article. Some parts in boldface…

International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane, under U.S. sanctions, on Sunday called The Hague-based organization the last bastion of the rule of law in the world.

Support from people around the world is necessary for the continuation of the ICC, she said in an event held by a nongovernmental organization in Tokyo.

Akane, who attended the event online, expressed her sincere gratitude for assistance from Japan, such as a signature campaign.

The U.S. sanctions are illegal and unacceptable, she said, calling them a move to suppress justice through external force.

Akane said she has been able to receive her salaries through a local bank while facing problems remitting money. Companies have rejected transactions with her due to the sanctions, she added.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you find Akane’s words about the American sanctions on her rather twisted given the fact that the ICC itself threatened American sovereignty and even interfered Philippine sovereignty and justice system? Are you convinced that Akane is simply pretending to be a victim? Do you want to see the ICC come to an end soon?
