FOR:

“Trespass to Dwelling”

OSCAR ANCHETA BARUELA

Respondent
x------------------------------------x

COUNTER-AFFIDAVIT

I, OSCAR ANCHETA BARUELA, of legal age, Filipino citizen and

resident of Patucannay, Bangued, Abra, after having been sworn to in
accordance with law hereby depose and state that:

1. I am the respondent in the above-captioned case for trespass to

dwelling filed by complainant Rodel Villastiqui Laureta;

2. I vehemently deny the allegations of the complainant. Complainant

and his witnesses were conniving and lying under oath because their
sworn affidavits were made to harass and vex me since I did not
support the candidacy of the complainant in the recent barangay
elections.

3. The allegations are groundless and blatant fabrications, the truth being
that on May 12, 2018 around eight oclock in the morning while I was
 heading home, the complainant was shouting at the top of his voice
saying “putang ina mo, patayin kita!” (you son of a bitch, I will kill
you!). Since I was in a hurry I just answered saying “sige, kung kaya
mo!” (sure, if you can!) and left him.

4. Furthermore, upon inquiry, no complaint, petition, action or

proceeding involving any matter within the authority of the Lupon shall
be filed or instituted directly in court or any other government office
for adjudication, unless there has been a confrontation between the
parties before the Lupon Chairman or Pangkat, and that not
conciliation or settlement has been reached as certified by the Lupon
Secretary or Pangkat Secretary as attested to by the Lupon or Pangkat
Chairman or unless the settlement has been repudiated by the parties
(Local Government Code, Section 412);

5. Considering that we have not gone through the Barangay Conciliation

process, this case should be dismissed for jurisdictional defect;

6. I am executing this Counter-Affidavit for the purpose of attesting to

the truth of the foregoing statements, to inform the proper authorities
of the above facts, to support my prayer for the dropping or dismissal
of the instant case against me and for whatever purpose this may
serve best.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 29 th day of

May, 2018 at Bangued, Abra , Philippines.
