On July 30th, 2024, a Filipino man stood trial for multiple counts of sexual abuse against his 11-year-old half-brother. The accused, referred to as A.J.B.D., has admitted to 16 charges, including indecent acts with a child under 16, producing child pornography, and non-consensual anal intercourse.
The disturbing case involves allegations that A.J.B.D. engaged in oral and anal sex with the victim, identified as X, and even coerced him into consuming drugs between 2017 and 2021. A USB drive containing 12 videos of the accused engaging in sexual acts with the young victim was discovered at A.J.B.D.'s residence.
Despite the severity of the charges, the defense team pleaded for leniency, arguing that A.J.B.D. had previously provided crucial testimony in another case, even though the co-defendant was ultimately acquitted. The defense contended that this cooperation should qualify A.J.B.D. for a 50% reduction in his sentence.
The judge, taking this into consideration, decided to postpone the sentencing until September 12th, keeping the accused in custody until then. The case, with the reference number HCCC22/2023, continues to unfold, highlighting the harrowing nature of the allegations and the potential impact on the young victim.
The public and those affected by this deeply troubling case await the court's decision regarding the accused's sentence.
菲律賓男子被控多項性罪行 要求減刑50%
2024年7月30日,一名菲律賓男子因多次性侵犯其11歲的同父異母弟弟而受審。被告人被稱為A.J.B.D.,他已承認16項罪名,包括與16歲以下兒童發生猥褻行為、製作兒童色情製品以及非自願性肛交。
這起令人不安的案件涉及指控A.J.B.D.於2017年至2021年期間曾與受害人X進行口交和肛交,更曾強迫他服用毒品。在被告人的住所發現一個USB裝置,內含12段他與年幼受害人發生性行為的影片。
儘管罪名嚴重,辯護團隊仍要求從寬處理,辯稱A.J.B.D.曾在另一案件中提供關鍵證供,即使最終同案被告人被無罪釋放。辯護律師認為,這個合作行為應該讓A.J.B.D.獲得減刑50%的資格。
法官經考慮後,決定將量刑押後至9月12日,並將被告人羈押至那時。這宗案件(案號HCCC22/2023)仍在繼續,突顯了這些指控的駭人內容以及對年輕受害人可能造成的影響。
公眾及受影響人士正期待法院就被告人的刑期作出決定。
