Transgendered Suspect Arrested In Parañaque City For Victimizing Japanese National, Two Other Transgendered Suspects On The Loose

Recently in the City of Parañaque, a Japanese national got duped, assaulted and robbed by three transgendered suspects inside a hotel room and one of them eventually got arrested, according to a Manila Bulletin news report. A manhunt has been launched to find the two transgendered suspects who escaped.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

A supposed dating app meet-up turned into a violent incident after a Japanese national was allegedly duped, assaulted, and robbed by three transgender suspects inside a hotel room in Parañaque City on April 8.

Parañaque City Police chief Col. Nicolas Pinon identified the victim as Uri, 26, who was staying at Seaside Drive, Entertainment City, Barangay Tambo.

Police arrested one of the suspects, identified as Justine, while two others, known only as Riley and Kitty, managed to escape and are now the subject of a manhunt.

According to the victim, he met Riley through a dating app and agreed to meet at his hotel room. Riley later arrived with companions Justine and Kitty.

Once inside, the suspects allegedly stripped the victim and forced him to perform a sexual act. They then demanded P20,000 each, but the victim refused.

The situation escalated when the suspects allegedly assaulted him—kicking him and threatening him with a stun gun pointed at his face—forcing him to comply and agree to withdraw money.

Police said Justine accompanied the victim to an ATM, where Uri discreetly sought help by typing “Please help me” on his phone and showing it to a hotel receptionist.

The receptionist immediately alerted hotel security, and with the help of a Japanese interpreter, authorities were able to arrest Justine.

However, upon returning to his room, the victim discovered that the remaining suspects had fled and his belongings had been ransacked. Around 200,000 yuan and P9,000 in cash were reported missing.

Justine is now detained at the Parañaque police custodial facility and faces robbery charges.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, do you think there are a lot of violent criminals and thieves within the transgendered community as well as within the LGBT community? Do you know anyone who was victimized by transgendered people lately? What do you think makes transgendered individuals violent? Do you think this incident will discourage Japanese tourists from visiting the Philippines?

Netanyahu Declares Direct Talks With Lebanon On Disarmament Of Hezbollah And Peace

As much of the world and the corrupted mainstream news media looked negatively at Israel in its conflict with the Hezbollah terrorist group, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that the government will start a ceasefire and talk directly with Lebanon immediately for peace and the disarmament of the said terrorist group, according to a news report of The Jerusalem Post.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from The Jerusalem Post’s news report. Some parts in boldface…

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday announced that his cabinet would begin ceasefire and Hezbollah disarmament talks with Lebanon “as soon as possible,” in light of the current active warfront between the IDF and Hezbollah and the upcoming peace talks with Iran in Islamabad.

Netanyahu’s decision was motivated by “Lebanon’s repeated requests to open direct negotiations with Israel,” the prime minister said, adding that “negotiations will focus on disarming Hezbollah and establishing peaceful relations between Israel and Lebanon.”

This announcement came just minutes before Hezbollah launched a barrage of rockets, triggering sirens in northern Israel.

In a video statement later on Thursday, Netanyahu reiterated these points, adding: “I have already brokered peace with Arab countries four times, and I intend to do it again.”

Hezbollah lawmaker Ali Fayyad said on Thursday that the group rejected direct negotiations with Israel and that the Lebanese government should demand a ceasefire as a precondition before any further steps are taken.

The negotiations, expected to begin on Tuesday, will be conducted between Israeli ambassador to the United States Yechiel Leiter and Lebanese ambassador to the United States Nada Hamadeh Moawad, Israeli sources told The Jerusalem Post.

Michel Issa, the US ambassador to Lebanon, is expected to mediate the talks, sources said.

Israeli sources stated that there is currently no ceasefire and that Israeli forces will remain on the ground in Lebanon in the immediate future to act against any threat from Hezbollah.

An hour before Netanyahu’s statement, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said he was pursuing a diplomatic track on this matter that was beginning to be seen “positively” by international actors, according to Reuters.

A senior Lebanese official also told Reuters that Lebanon had spent the last day pushing for a temporary ceasefire to allow for broader talks with Israel, describing the effort as a “separate track but the same model” as the US-Iran truce.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you think the announced Israel-Lebanon meeting will result in both peace and the disarmament of the Hezbollah terrorists? Do you think the anticipated presence of the United States will ensure a solid agreement between the two nations?
