MAN NABBED OVER 'JOKE' AS WOMAN CRIES HARASSMENT IN CEBU

A habal-habal rider was arrested for allegedly harassing a shopkeeper in Cebu City, according to a Balitanghali report by Alan Domingo on Thursday.

The rider admitted that he asked the shopkeeper if he could buy her instead of the food she was selling, the report said.

He defended his actions, saying that he was only trying to make a joke.

Although the victim did not comment on the matter, the report added that she was determined to file charges against the suspect for violation of the Safe Spaces Act.

"Let us be careful of our comments, especially kung ang pagsasabihan natin ng comment ay hindi natin kilala at hindi natin alam kung ano ang kaniyang pinagdaanan at kung sino ang taong ito," said Cebu City Police DCDO Police Lieutenant Colonel Janette Rafter.
