A popular blogger who was known for supporting the Duterte family was surprised after several members of the PNP raided his house on February 22, around 1 AM, in his Cebu City home.
The content creator, Jun Abines, was the leader of Maisug Cebu, who was organizing an indignation rally in Mandaue City on the same day.
Former President Rodrigo Duterte was set to attend the said rally.
According to Abines, his laptop and cellphone were confiscated by the authorities.
Abines named CIDG Chief Nicolas Torre III as behind the raid.
“My phone and PC was seized by PNP at midnight. CIDG Chief Torre filed a cyber libel case against me and was able to secure a search warrant to get my Cellphone and PC. They did not allow me to close my bank accounts, gcash and personal accounts,” said Abines.
The serving of the warrant was also captured during an online meeting, as the incident happened while Abines was planning the rally.
As of writing, Abines has yet to reveal his next move after the raid.
