ILOILO City – The police arrested a 24-year-old man accused of raping his wife’s 17-year-old niece.
Elias John Padual tried to run away unsuccessfully from arresting police officers in Barangay Sarawag, Janiuay, Iloilo on Monday around 3 p.m.
After the rape complaint was filed against Padual last year, he went into hiding, according to Chief Inspector Jonah Galicha, Janiuay police chief.
The complainant was living with her aunt and the suspect. She was raped on Oct. 17, 2015, she stated in her complaint.
Her aunt was not in the house when it happened, according to the niece.
Padual was a native of Cebu. According to the complainant, she was warned not to tell her aunt about the rape or both of them would be harmed.
The complainant also claimed that a visiting cousin of the suspect, Joy Dave Padual, also raped her last year.
The aunt left her husband after learning of the rape; she believed her niece, said Galicha.
The police of Janiuay arrested the suspect after receiving information recently that he was in Barangay Sarawag.
Galicha said the Janiuay police station has started coordinating with the police in Cebu for the arrest of the suspect’s cousin there.
As of this writing, Padual was detained at the lockup cell of the Janiuay police station./PN
