School bus attendant molests girl, 8

For allegedly molesting a grade one pupil, a 56-year-old school service attendant landed in jail in Pasig City yesterday.

The suspect, Felipe Pica, alias “Bulong,” of Barangay Rosario, vehemently denied molesting the  eight-year-old girl, who identified him during a confrontation.

The girl told her mother about her ordeal about five days after Pica allegedly molested her while on their way home at 4 p.m. last week. The girl even demonstrated to her mother how the suspect did it.

Senior Police Officer 1 Remy Villanueva said Pica was seated beside the girl at that time and other students failed to notice the molestation. 

When the school service fetched the girl at 5 a.m. yesterday, the police – summoned by the victim’s parents – were already waiting for Pica, who did not resist arrest.

The police are preparing to charge Pica, who is detained at the Pasig City police detention center, with violating Republic Act 7610 or the anti-child abuse law.   – Non Alquitran
