A: Yes, Maam.

16.
Q: Mr. Witness, can you describe to me the
interior design of the shop?

A: When you enter the shop, you would first see


the reception area, where the receptionist would
welcome the customers. Then a small hallway on
the left side would be seen. The said hallway leads
to the rooms where the massages were given.

17.
Q: So when a person enters the shop, the rooms
cannot be easily seen?

A: Yes, Maam. But even when the person is still


walking towards the shop, the reception area can
already be seen because the shop has the glass
door and wall enclosing it.

18.
Q: So what divides the reception area from the
rooms?

A: A wooden wall, Maam.

19.
Q: Does this wooden wall dividing the first room
from the reception area reach the ceiling?

A: No, Maam. It has an opening between the


wooden wall and the ceiling. The top part of the
wooden wall is open. It has floral designs carved
on it so it became open.

20.
Q: You mean, the wooden wall actually reached
the ceiling but the top part of the wall is open because
it has a floral designs carved on it?

A: Yes, Maam.

21.
Q: From the ceiling up to the part of the wooden
wall where the floral design ended, how long do you
think it is?

A: Around 12 inches, Maam.

22.

Q: By 12 inches, you mean, as long as a ruler?

A: Yes, Maam.

23.
Q: We have a ruler here, can you show the court
how long the said opening on the wall is?

A: (Mr. Witness holds the ruler and demonstrates


to the court) With the ruler standing, the ceiling is
the top of this ruler and the end of the floral
design is almost the end part of the ruler also.
24.
Q: So from the first inch of this ruler up to the
twelfth inch is the length of the floral design?

A: Yes, Maam. Approximately, at least.

25.
Q: From the first inch up to the twelfth inch is the
length of the opening?

A: Yes, Maam.

26.

Q: Okay, so each room has this kind of set up?

A: Yes, Maam. Even the other rooms next to the


first room has the same set up.

27.
Q: Mr. Witness, what does the reception area
itself look like?

A: It has a couch on the front of the receiving


area, where the customers are invited to sit before
they can be catered by the therapist. It also has a
glass table where magazines and newspaper were
displayed for entertainment.

28.

Q: Where is the couch located?

A: It is on the left side of the reception area; it is


adjacent to the hallway but it is far enough to give
space to allow a person to walk through it.

29.
Q: Can you describe what the shop looks like
from the reception area?

A: The shop has a narrow hallway on the left part,


and it has small rooms for customers where they
will be massaged.

30.

Q: What does a room look like?

A: It has two beds, with towels on them, wherein


the customer/s will be massaged. It has a small
table on the side of the bed wherein ointments,
oils and aromatic candles are placed.

31.

Q: Does the room have a door?

A: None, Maam. It has a curtain, however, which


will be pulled to close the room.

32.
Q: So there is no door or wall separating the
room from the common area of the shop?

A: None, Maam.

33.
Q: How would the people inside the shop know
that the room is occupied and massage session has
started?

A: It is a regulation in the shop that the curtains


should be pulled aside when the rooms are not in
use. And if a room is in use, it is only when the
curtain would be pulled to cover the room for
privacy.

34.

Q: How many rooms do you have?

A: The shop has 6 rooms.

35.
Q: Which room did you use in massaging the
complainant?

A: The first room, Maam.

36.

Q: Where is it located?

A: The room right after the reception area, Maam.

37.
Q: Was there any one else in the area when you
were massaging the complainant?

A: Yes, Maam. Our receptionist was on her table


at that time.

38.
Q: How far is the reception area from the first
room?

A: Not so far, Maam. Because if the receptionist


would walk from her table to the first room, it
would only take her about 5 steps to reach the
room.

39.
Q: Mr. Witness, by 5 steps, you mean the normal
stride of a person?

A: Yes, Maam. The normal walk of a person.

40.
Q: Okay, when the complainant arrived, you said
you rested for a while after your service with the
previous customer. So the complainant had to wait for
you to massage her specifically?

A: No, Maam. Customers were asked if they


would want a male or female massage therapist.

41.
Q: So the customers are free to choose who
would massage them?

A: Yes, Maam.

42.
Q: So by that, do you mean to say
complainant chose you, a male, to massage her?

the

A: Because I was the only massage therapist at


that minute. My co-therapist, a female, went out
of the shop for a quick snack, for she just also
finished a massage service with a previous
customer.

43.
Q: So are you saying that the complainant was
left with no other choice aside from you to massage
her?

A: No, Maam. Because when my female cotherapist went out, she said to the complainant
that she would just grab a quick snack before she
comes back to massage the complainant.

44.
Q: If that is the case, why were you the one who
massaged the complainant?

A: Because the complainant said that she really


needed a massage so I was the one who was left
to massage her.

45.
Q: After your rest, did you proceed to massage
her?

A: Yes, Maam. Because she kept on telling the


receptionist that she needed the massage.

46.
Q: So she chose you instead of waiting for your
co-therapist to return?

A: Yes, Maam.

47.

Q: Then what happened next?

A: I told her to proceed to the first room where I


would massage her. I also told her to undress
herself and put on the towel on the bed and to lay
down on the bed and to call me after so I can
start the massage.

48.

Q: So what happened next?

A: She went inside the room and after a few


minutes, she called me.

49.

Q: What happened next?

A: I entered the room and pulled the curtain


behind me. I saw the complainant already on the
bed, lying down on her stomach.

50.

Q: So what happened next?

A: I started the massage. I put some oil on her


back and massaged it. I also massaged the back
of her neck and also her calves. The back parts of
her body were massaged.

51.
Q: After massaging her back, what happened
next?

A: I asked the complainant to face front.

52.

Q: And then?

A: She faced front and I massaged her neck up to


her shoulders.

53.

Q: What else?

A: I also massaged her legs. From the mid-part of


her thighs that are not covered by the towel, her
legs and also her feet.

54.
Q: Did you ask the complainant to remove the
towel covering her body?

A: No, Maam.

55.
Q: Did you touch the complainant on any part of
her body that is covered by the towel?

A: No, Maam.

56.
Q: What are the parts of the body of the
complainant are covered by the towel?

A: The towel covers her chest, her abdomen, her


hips and it reaches until the mid-part of her thigh.

57.
Q: So you did not see any part of her body that is
covered by the towel?

A: No, Maam.

58.
Q: You did not see her private parts, her breasts
and her vagina?

A: No, Maam. I only paid attention to the parts


that I needed to massage.

59.
Q: Okay, so was the complainant sleeping while
you were massaging her?

A: When I was massaging the back part of her


body, I think she fell asleep because I can hear
her snoring a little.

60.

Q: And then?

A: But when I asked her to face front, she woke


up.

61.
Q: Was she awake by the time you were
massaging the front part of her body?

A: Yes, Maam.

62.
Q: The complainant alleged that you touched and
massaged her breasts, is it true, Mr. Witness.

A: No, Maam.

63.
Q: She also alleged that you fingered her while
you were massaging her, is it true, Mr. Witness?

A: No, Maam.

64.
Q: Did the complainant say or shout anything
while the massage session was on going?

A: No, Maam.

65.

Q: Thats all, Mr. Witness. Thank you.

A: Thank you, Maam.
