The decision comes after a 10-year legal case, brought about by a violent altercation at Cornejo’s condominium unit in January 2014. The accused can appeal the decision. The document says the complainant’s friends, including Lee, arrive and arrest Navarro via citizen’s arrest, as the host-actor allegedly raped Cornejo for less than a minute.
Also included in the complaint are Bernice Lee, Ferdinand Guerrero, Simeon “Zimmer” Raz, a certain alias “Mike,” and two more unidentified suspects.that a new CCTV footage taken during the early hours of January 23 after Lee’s camp brought Navarro to the police shows the businessman apparently kissing Cornejo in a condominium elevator.
After her release, the model goes straight to the Commission on Human Rights to seek help on her dismissed rape case against Navarro.“While Navarro had indeed been detained, there is a possibility that said detention might be legal in view of citizen’s arrest and not for the purpose of kidnapping,” reads the decision penned by Associate Justice Renato Francisco.
According to the SC, the CA gravely erred in ordering the DOJ to revive the rape case despite Cornejo’s inconsistencies.
