00:00In this cellphone video that was taken on April 25, 2024,
00:11we can see the wounds on her face.
00:14The eyes of the victim that we are going to hide under the name of Rona,
00:20who is only 17 years old, while she is asking for help.
00:24Rona.
00:27The reporter's notebook found the woman in the video.
00:30According to Rona, she went out of her house at 10 p.m.
00:34to buy food from the store.
00:36I usually buy food at night.
00:40There's nothing there.
00:42But while she was walking to the store,
00:44a man suddenly approached her.
00:48His eyes were red.
00:50He was so angry that he really wanted to hit her.
00:54All he said was that he wanted to ask her something.
00:57A few moments later, a man suddenly came out
01:01and touched her.
01:03This is where she started to faint and lose consciousness.
01:09At the request of Rona and her parents,
01:12we went back to the place where she was brought to.
01:16According to her,
01:17from Barangay Tigpala, San Miguel, Bulacan,
01:20she was forced to get on the motorcycle of the suspect
01:23and was brought to Barangay San Juan, San Miguel, Bulacan.
01:26There, there, there, there.
01:28There, there, there.
01:30There, there, there.
01:31There, there, there.
01:32There, there, there.
01:34Because I was running here and there.
01:36There, there, there.
01:37He hit me there.
01:39When they arrived at a dangerous place,
01:42this is where he was beaten and stabbed by a man.
01:47The suspect also tried to rape her.
01:50There, there, there.
01:52I was planted there.
01:54He brought me there.
01:55Then, I was running here and there.
01:58I saw a light, ma'am,
02:00that people might still be awake.
02:02The door was still open.
02:04Maybe, ma'am, someone will help me.
02:09Despite Rona's weakness,
02:11she insisted on screaming and asking for help.
02:15Fortunately, the resident heard Rona's request for help.
02:20When I woke up, someone was screaming and asking for help.
02:22I thought it was my nephew who was asking for help.
02:25When he heard the scream,
02:28this is where he saw the naked body of the victim.
02:33When I saw that her body was so naked,
02:36I let her go.
02:37I told her, don't be afraid.
02:38I said, I will help you.
02:41Fortunately, she agreed to help me.
02:43Ray also saw the man beating and stabbing Rona.
02:47But the suspect was able to escape quickly.
02:50I saw a man who was running away.
02:52He was running away that night.
02:54When I got him here,
02:56I brought him there.
02:59Ray immediately reported the incident to the barangay.
03:02It was dark, ma'am,
03:04and it was in the middle of the field.
03:06We didn't know if the suspect was still there.
03:08We were looking for him, ma'am.
03:10We tried our best.
03:11We really didn't see the suspect, ma'am.
03:14Rona's family also witnessed what happened to her.
03:17When I saw her face was broken,
03:21I thought it was an accident.
03:24But when she said, follow me.
03:26There's a man who's going to kill me.
03:28That's when I got hysterical.
03:30Where are you?
03:31As the barangay people continued to investigate the crime scene,
03:36they saw the motorcycle that the suspect left behind.
03:39Rona also confirmed that this is the motorcycle
03:42that the suspect used to bring her to the crime scene.
03:46She left her motorcycle, ma'am.
03:48The motorcycle was a Pamasada.
03:53It has a body number.
03:55We know that it was stolen.
03:57They also tried to find possible traces of the suspect
04:01on closed-circuit television or CCTV
04:04attached to the roads.
04:06Ma'am, this is just here, ma'am.
04:09In our barangay, in the center.
04:11Our barangay is in a different area.
04:17But due to bad luck,
04:18the barangay is owned by homeowners.
04:22That's why, ma'am, the barangay doesn't let us in.
04:26In the area of the barangay, there's no CCTV.
04:31Rona's family immediately went to the police station
04:34for a blotter.
04:40San Miguel Municipal Police started their investigation.
04:46The name of the man seen on the motorcycle
04:49was identified as a person of interest.
04:51We will hide him under the name Raymart.
04:55The police searched his house,
04:57but they couldn't find him here.
05:01They also went to the house of the suspect,
05:04but they couldn't find him.
05:07The family was able to get the name of the suspect.
05:12That's why, ma'am, we also put it in the report.
05:15The name of the suspect, we said,
05:17he's already a police officer.
05:20You should file a case.
05:23March 30, 2024,
05:25several cases of frustrated rape and frustrated homicide
05:30were formally filed.
05:32Rona's family fought the suspect.
05:36She was continuously searched by the authorities.
05:39Because the suspect is still not caught,
05:41Rona's fear is still there.
05:45She really wants to know who he is.
05:49She really wants to catch him.
05:51Maybe he will return to me.
05:53She knows that.
05:56She still feels the danger of her safety.
06:00I can't imagine that I will see him again.
06:02I can't imagine that I will see him again.
06:05I will die if I see him again.
06:08I will go back to what he did to me.
06:14According to the barangay,
06:15they will continue to monitor
06:17in order to find the suspect
06:19and protect Rona.
06:22That night, we heard what happened.
06:24We were on our way,
06:25and the suspect was already there.
06:27So that we can help the family,
06:29we can help the police,
06:30how to catch the suspect of the rape.
06:34Because, ma'am, what he did was not a joke.
06:36The child said,
06:37he almost died.
