COMPLAINT-AFFIDAVIT

I, ROMINA A. ANDRADA, 36 years old, married, and a resident of

Block 30, Lot 11, Ilang-ilang Street, Phase 4, Lynville Subdivision, Brgy.
Calios, Santa Cruz, Laguna after having been duly sworn to in accordance
with law, hereby depose and state THAT:

1. I am the mother of Cassie A. Andrada, 9 years old, enrolled as a

Grade Three Pupil at Santa Cruz Central Elementary School. A
machine copy of the birth certificate of Cassie A. Andrada is
hereunto attached and made as an integral part hereof as Annex
“A”;

2. Last April 19, 2019, on or about 10:30 P.M., my daughter Cassie

A. Andrada with her cousin Rhian A. Bonifacio, 20 years old,
asked for my permission to attend the funeral of their
grandmother, the late Ruby Azucena.

3. Because of the assurance of Rhian that she will be looking and

taking care of Cassie, I allowed them to go ahead of me as I was
also planning of going there and that the place of the wake was
only a few houses away. While I was on my way to the wake, I
heard a commotion at a near distance, which was followed by
shouting and crying so I hurriedly went to the place. Upon my
arrival, I saw my daughter lying in the ground, bathe in her own
blood, with Rhian hoarsely shouting and crying for help. Trembling
and lost for words, I asked Rhian who was the culprit of the crime
which she answered without hesitation as one named Franco B.
Segismundo. I asked her where Franco is and she replied,
“umalis na tita” (he has already fled auntie). Crying for help, I
shouted and begged the people around us to help me bring my
 daughter to the nearest hospital which was responded to with
haste by Alan Del Mundo who was around. The sworn statement
of Alan Del Mundo is hereunto attached and made an integral part
of this complaint as Annex “B”;

4. Upon arrival at the Laguna Holy Family Hospital, Dr. Feona

Villanueva, immediately attended my daughter and after a
thorough examination, declared her dead on arrival. The medico-
legal autopsy report and the NSO death certificate from the City
Civil Registrar of Cassie A. Andrada is hereunto attached and
made an integral part of the complaint as Annex “C” and “ D”,
respectively;

5. While at the hospital, I inquired Rhian if the said Franco B.

Segismundo was the same Franco B. Segismundo who is our
neighbor and who came to our house earlier that day to borrow
money from me which she positively identified as the same
person. The sworn statement of Rhian A. Bonifacio is hereunto
attached and made an integral part of this complaint as Annex
“E”;

6. I denied the request of said Franco B. Segismundo because of his

notorious character in our neighborhood as a drunkard, gambler
and without a permanent job and that after the said refusal to lend
money, he mumbled and uttered to me that I would surely regret
my decision which statement I took for granted.

7. I immediately reported the stabbing incident on or about 11:30

P.M. at the Santa Cruz Police Station which is the nearest police
station. The original copy of the excerpt of the police blotter duly
issued by Senior Police Officer Cardo Dalisay of Santa Cruz Police
Station is hereunto attached and made as an integral part hereof
as Annex “F” of the complaint;

8. I am therefore executing this affidavit freely and voluntarily in

support of my intent to file a case for MURDER qualified by
 treachery and/or the appropriate criminal case against Franco
Segismundo, who is 35 years of age and a resident of Block 30,
Lot 9, Ilang-ilang Street, Phase 4, Lynville Subdivision, Brgy.
Calios, Santa Cruz, Laguna.

IN WITNESS HEREOF, I hereunto set my hand this 20th day of April,

2019 at Santa Cruz, Laguna.
