The Mauban, Quezon Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 64 has
ordered the release of Andrea Rosal, daughter of the former spokesman of the
New People's Army (NPA) Ka Roger Rosal.
In an order dated Sept. 7, 2015 and signed by Judge Rodolfo
Obnamia, Jr., the Mauban RTC ordered the "immediate release" of
Andrea, who is an accused in a case of murder.
The order was issued a month after the RTC granted the
"motion to quash" filed by the camp of the accused.
It was learned that the RTC issued on Aug. 6, 2015 a
resolution in favor of the "motion to quash" of Andrea after it gave
weight to the argument that there was no evidence linking Andrea to the crime
levelled against her.
As the 15-day period within which the prosecution has to
file an appeal against the decision of the RTC granting the "motion to
quash" of Andrea has already lapsed, the camp of Andrea submitted next the
"motion to release".
The RTC heard the "motion to release" of Andrea on
Monday, and before lunchtime, it immediately rendered a decision.
According to Atty. Edre Olalia, lawyer of Andrea, because
the case of kidnapping against his client has already been dismissed last year,
there is no more reason for her to remain in detention.
