It was only upon further prodding that she was forced to reveal the violation committed on her by accused-appellant. The record shows that amidst complainant s pleas and struggles, accused-appellant pinned complainant s hand behind her back, covered her mouth with his hand and pulled her underwear to her knee before spreading her legs apart with such force that her undergarments were ripped. It likewise appears that accused-appellant remained unfazed when complainant slapped him and struggled to point the beam of the flashlight at him not only to take a look at her assailant but apparently to deter him from consummating his bestial desires. Curiously, while accused-appellant insists that the sexual congress was consensual, in the same breath, he suggests that complainant s attacker was another person who pretended to be Bobby Agunos. It is difficult to believe that the complainant would let a relative take the blame for an assault against her honor if the crime was in fact committed by another person in the community.
Complainant is a relative of accused-appellant.
Her husband is a close friend of accused-appellant as well. Certainly, her close association with accused-appellant would have made her familiar with the sound of his voice, with his manner and build such that she would have no difficulty in ascertaining whether her assailant was Bobby Agunos or not. Accused-appellant was positively identified by the complainant as the perpetrator of the crime because complainant pointed the flashlight at him. Complainant not only had a look at the face of her assailant, she spoke to him and begged him to go home. Accused-appellant even had the temerity to scold complainant when the latter tried to free herself from his embrace, causing him to ejaculate outside her private part and between her thighs.
