ILOILO City – In Barangay Ortiz, City Proper, a resident charged with “violence against women” has been arrested.
Police served Celso Nazila with a warrant of arrest for alleged violation of Republic Act 9262, or the Anti-Violence against Women and their Children Act of 2004.
Judge Ma. Yvette Go of the Regional Trial Court Branch 32 issued the warrant and set the bail at P80,000, a police report showed.
The 49-year-old suspect was detained at Police Station after his arrest around 9 a.m. on Monday.
