DOJ tracking man who threatens to rape Sharon’s daughter

MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Justice is verifying the identity of a man who posted on social media his threat to rape Sharon Cuneta’s 19-year-old daughter, DOJ Secretary Menardo Guevarra said yesterday.

Guevarra said Cuneta reached out to him and expressed her desire to file a complaint against the person who posted an offending message against Frankie, the actress’ eldest daughter with Sen. Kiko Pangilinan.

He said he advised Cuneta that the identity and location of the person should be clearly established first before she could file a complaint.

“But it appears that Sharon, through her own efforts, has identified the person, including his location and the name and address of his employer,” Guevarra said.

“If she files a criminal complaint with the DOJ, we will verify the respondent’s identity and address for the purpose of giving him notice,” he added.

Cuneta on Saturday took to social media to defend her daughter against a man, known as Sonny Alcos, who supposedly said that he would find Frankie and rape her.

Alcos, whose real name is Sonny Co according to some reports, is based in the United Kingdom.

The actress vowed to exhaust all means to bring justice to Alcos.

“I will find you. You face me, you coward. Tandaan mo kung sino ako. Nanay ni KC, Frankie, Miel at Miguel. You crossed the line,” Cuneta said. “God help me and the law. God help you when I find you. Hindi kita patatahimikin. Tandaan mo ito: Ako ay anak ni Pablo Cuneta. Mali ang binangga mo.”

Prior to this, Frankie has been vocal against rape culture, saying a person’s attire is not an invitation to rape.
