AND UNDER OATH, AVERS THE FOLLOWING:

1. Q: Ms. Witness, can you tell your name and your other
personal circumstances?

A: My name is Queen Leah Avenue, 46 years old, married,


Filipino and a resident of 214 Baker Street, Sampaloc, Manila

2. Q: Did you personally know Princess Aurora Avenue?

A: Yes sir.

3. Q: How did you know her?

A: She is my daughter sir and we live in the same house since


she was born on January 29, 1996.
4. Q: Ms. Witness, can you tell what happened on the dawn of
July 4, 2019?

A: On 04 July, 2019 at around two o’clock in the morning, I woke


up to pee. But when I step out of our room, I saw my daughter
sitting in our living room. I asked her “kanina ka pa?” to which
she had not answered. I noticed she was not in her usual self;
her hands were shaking as she held her phone. I knew
something was wrong; I approached her and asked her if she’s
ok and how is she feeling, then she just started crying.

5. Q: Then what happened next?

A: I asked her what happened? Why was she crying? She told
me that her recent grab driver who brought her home few
minutes ago, harassed her. She demonstrated how her legs and
breasts were maliciously caressed by the driver. I asked why she
was seated in front, she replied that it was an instruction from the
driver because the car’s back door was locked as the seats were
wet from vomit. She further informed me that due to her fear for
her life, as the driver might kill her, she did not do other acts that
might provoke the driver to do something worst; thus, she just
changed her sitting position and pushed his hands away from her
breast to signify her refusal to driver’s actuations.

6. Q: What did you do upon learning that your daughter was


harassed?

A: I wanted to cry but I remained strong and firm for my daughter.


I asked her to show me her Grab’s booking history so I could see
the person who did that to her.

7. Q: What did you see in Grab’s booking history?

A: It was shown that her recent grab driver’s name is PRINCE


PHILIP SALVADOR. I asked her if he was the one who harassed
her and she answered in affirmative. She informed me that she
has already called Grab’s customer service and reported the
incident.

8. Q: What is the state of your daughter while telling you the


incident?

A: She was crying.

9. Q: Then what happened next?

A: We hurriedly went to Barangay to file a blotter report regarding


the foregoing incident.

No further question your Honor.
