Ana Jalandoni made her first public appearance Monday in Quezon City after the hotel incident involving actor Kit Thompson. Ana was joined by her family Lawrence and Marie Jalandoni.
Lawyer Faye Singson, Deanna Ang, and legal team were also present during press conference. Atty. Singson showed some of disturbing photos of Ana with bruises.
Ana’s lawyer said they will press charges against Thompson in violation of section 5 (a) of Republic Act 9262 or the Anti-Violence against Women and Children Act.
Singson added it is time for action to end violence against women. March is International Women’s Month.
ANA’S SIDE
“Nung una niya kong nasaktan, nag-isip ako no’n na hindi maganda, na mali ‘yung gano’ng attitude kasi may anger problem nga siya. Mainitin ‘yung ulo niya,” she said.
“Ang nangyari po kasi no’n nag-beach kami and activities, pagod na pagod po ako tapos nag-dinner kami. Pagbalik namin sa room, naligo siya and ako nasa bed. Sinampal niya ako ng gising and nagulat din ako, noon niya ako unang nasampal. Nag-sorry naman siya after,” she narrated.
“Pinaliwanagan ko siya na dapat hindi gano’n pero nag-ano na rin ako no’n na may mali.”
Ana added, “Mahal ko pa rin po siya. Hindi naman po gano’n kadali ‘yun na mawala pero syempre po hindi ko po deserve ‘yung nangyari sa akin.”
Jalandoni ended, “Ang importante po sa ‘kin ay ipaglaban ko ‘yung karapatan ko bilang babae, na hindi po katanggap-tanggap ‘yung nangyari sa akin pero ‘yung love po, nando’n pa rin po siya.”
