A DAMAGE suit was filed in the the Regional Trial Court against a private school in Carcar City over a photo of man with the caption “Beware of this person” posted in its guard house.

Spouses Raul and Floriza Montuya asked the court to order St. Catherine College to pay them P500,000 in damages for shaming them with the posted warning.

Raul’s photo was posted on the wall of the guard house of the school.
