Three men accused of raping student charged

A rape complaint was filed yesterday against three men who allegedly molested a 22-year-old female student in Cebu City.

Dexter Silangan Paalisbo, Darwin Barbosa and Antonio Molina are facing charges before the Cebu City Prosecutors’ Office.

Of the three, only Paalisbo got arrested by police.

Paalisbo is an alumnus of the school near the place where the alleged rape took place.

The two other respondents are presently studying in the school.

The victim, a third year medical technology student, had a drinking session with her boyfriend and the respondents somewhere outside the school last Oct. 14.

After the drinking session, the woman and her boyfriend went inside a room and slept.

Police said while the couple was asleep, the woman felt someone touching her private parts.

The woman ignored it, thinking it was just her boyfriend.

The woman began shouting when she noticed that her boyfriend was asleep.

Several men were seen running away when the woman alerted her boyfriend.

The woman went home and informed her father of the incident.

The father sought help from the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group in Central Visayas that led to the arrest of Paalisbo last Monday night. /REPORTER ADOR VINCENT S. MAYOL AND CORRESPONDENT CHITO O. ARAGON
