NBI nabs individual for kidnapping ex-live-in partner’s daughters

Operatives of the National Bureau of Investigation-Alaminos District Office (NBI-ALDO) have arrested an individual in La Union for allegedly kidnapping his former live-in partner’s minor children, the agency said Thursday.

According to the NBI, the complainant entrusted her daughters to her former live-in partner around May or June with the condition that he will return them in July.

However, when the subject failed to bring them back up until October, the woman filed a complaint before the NBI-ALDO.

Due to this, NBI agents conducted a rescue operation and apprehended the individual in Barangay Cuence, Pugo with the children.

The children were then turned over to the Dagupan City Social Welfare and Development Office, according to the NBI.

Meanwhile, the individual underwent an inquest before the Office of the City Prosecutor in Dagupan City for kidnapping and failure to return a minor under Article 270 of the Revised Penal Code.

He also underwent inquest for Violence Against Women and their Children under  Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004 as well as other violations under the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act.—AOL, GMA Integrated News.
