NLRC exec sued for photo of lawyer’s underskirt
By J.Lo
“Because of criminal act committed by respondent Abella, I no longer feel safe as person and as woman, considering that everything that happened from commission of crime up to filing of complaint has greatly favored respondent Abella,” Lawyer Estefanie Dayanghirang slapped National Labor Relations Commission(NLRC) 7th Division Commissioner Nendell Hanz Abella with another case of violating Anti-Photo and Voyeurism Act before Pasay City prosecutor’s office.
Abella is in hot water for allegedly taking pictures of Dayanghirang’s underskirt.
In 20-page complaint, Dayanghirang said Abella must be held criminally liable for his actions that gave rise to two separate and distinct offenses.
Dayanghirang said her second complaint cannot be considered violation of right against double jeopardy since it involved two cases.
She further reported that Abella even approached her and offered compensation for crime he committed “as if sexual harassment and violation can be bought and paid off.”
Dayanghirang was boarding a plane bound for Cebu on Feb. 12 when incident happened. She initially filed complaint before Lapu-Lapu City Prosecutor’s Office, but was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
Abella belied accusations against him and said he would answer allegations at proper time and forum.
