Already expecting the issuance of the arrest warrants, the laywer of model Deniece Cornejo and businessman Cedric Lee filed a motion for determination of probable cause in the serious illegal detention case against them.
This is in relation to the mauling of actor-host Vhong Navarro last January.
Atty. Howard Calleja filed the motion a day after the Department of Justice dismissed the rape complaint filed by Cornejo against Navarro.
Calleja said his motion includes the suspension of all proceedings, including the issuance of a warrant of arrest against his two clients.
The lawyer said it would be unfair to have the warrant of arrest issued against Lee and Cornejo in the coming weekend, adding that the Holy Week break is fast approaching.
Meanwhile, Calleja said the judge has ten days to review the information given by the DOJ in relation to their case.
Calleja went on to say that he does not know his clients' current whereabouts, but he was quick to add that he is in constant communication with them.--Source: ABS-CBN News
