There were no<br />
charges filed against<br />
Maria Isabel, but the<br />
NBI held her in their<br />
custody.<br />
”<br />
94<br />
Meanwhile, the cousin of XXX, Maria Isabel, filed charges of illegal<br />
detention against the NBI agents before the prosecutor’s office.<br />
In her complaint affidavit on January 23, she named four NBI<br />
members, Agapito gierran, Dominic Cero, an alias Sir Louie or Sir<br />
Das, one Atty yu and four other unnamed persons as respondents<br />
in breach of the RPC for arbitrary detention. There were no charges<br />
filed against Maria Isabel, but the NBI held her in their custody.<br />
In their defense, however, the nBI agents made a claim that maria<br />
Isabel had voluntarily opted to stay at the nBI’s headquarters,<br />
supposedly to console XXX. The nBI, however, failed to give any<br />
substantial and reasonable explanations why they have failed to<br />
properly inform her and promptly release her. They also did not<br />
explain why they had to take personal details and lift fingerprints<br />
from her if indeed she was not part of the charges they have filed<br />
against XXX.<br />
