GIRL ABUSED
A 3-YEAR-OLD girl was allegedly sexually molested by her young playmates in barangay Casili, Mandaue City.
Three persons reported to the Canduman police station that they saw three boys forcing their private parts into the girl’s mouth while they were playing in a grassy area last Saturday afternoon.
SPO3 Marissa Basiga, investigator of Women and Children Protection Desk (WCPD) of the Mandaue City Police Office (MCPO), said the three boys, who were cousins, were referred to the City Social Welfare Service (CSWS) for counseling.
The boys’ parents also went to the barangay hall where they were exhorted to keep a closer eye on their children to avoid a repeat of the incident, said police./REPORTER JUCELL MARIE P. CUYOS
