The Department of Justice has ordered Las Piñas prosecutors to withdraw the cyber libel charges filed against talent manager Annabelle Rama-Gutierrez by Jayke Joson.
In a resolution promulgated on November 21, the DOJ granted Rama’s petition for review assailing the March 30 resolution of the Office of the Prosecutor in Las Piñas City that found probable cause against her for two counts of cyber libel. The DOJ ordered the prosecutors to withdraw the corresponding information filed before the Las Piñas Regional Trial Court Branch 253.
“Accordingly, with the elements of cyber libel not having been fully met and the venue having been improperly laid, we cannot sustain a finding of probable cause,” the DOJ said."The abovecited information are now withdrawn from the docket of this Court. The manifestation filed by the accused on December 1, 2022 is noted. The hearings of these cases on December 5, 2022 is canceled," it said in an order.
Further, it said that Joson failed to assert which particular statements in the posts were defamatory in nature.
