Warrant of arrest out for Cristy Fermin over Bea Alonzo's libel case

Warrant of arrest out for Cristy Fermin over Bea Alonzo's libel case

GMA Network30-07-2025
The Quezon City Regional Trial Court issued warrants of arrest against Cristy Fermin and two other entertainment personalities over Bea Alonzo's libel complaint.
According to Glen Juego of Super Radyo DZBB, Presiding Judge Cherry Chiara Hernando found probable cause to put Fermin and her co-hosts Rommel Villamor and Wendell Alvarez on trial.
The bail is set at P48,000 each, with the charges stemming from alleged defamatory statements made against Alonzo.
In a text message sent to GMA News Online, Fermin said that they are already addressing the matter.
"Inaasikaso na namin. Naku, ganun talaga! Kakambal ng trabaho natin ang ganitong kaso. Ilalaban natin ito," she said.
In May 2024, Alonzo filed a cyber libel complaint against Fermin, Ogie Diaz, and their co-hosts on their respective programs.
Alonzo's complaint affidavit states she was the victim of false, malicious, and damaging information from someone who pretended to be close to her, which was published and discussed on Diaz and Fermin's online shows without any basis.
GMA News Online has reached out to Alonzo for comment.

Over P1M worth of PHIVOLCS equipment monitoring Mt. Pinatubo stolen

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) on Wednesday reported that valuable equipment at the San Jose Observation Station in Tarlac have been stolen. Among the missing items is a Kinemetrics Q330HRS+ Quanterra digitizer worth approximately P1.144 million. The device records and converts earthquake signal data from seismic sensors into usable formats. The station's solar batteries and solar controller, worth approximately P70,000, were also stolen, PHIVOLCS said. State seismologists said they discovered that the seismic vault of the San Jose Observation Station was forced open and its equipment stolen during a routine maintenance activity. PHIVOLCS, however, noted that the thieves failed to steal the seismic sensor that was buried 20 meters deep into the ground. During a press conference, Ma. Antonia Bornas, PHIVOLCS Volcano Monitoring and Eruption Prediction Division chief, said the recent theft occurred on the evening of July 28, as the last transmission was recorded at 8:19 p.m. 'So, typically, sa gabi po talaga nangyayari ang mga thefts (typically, thefts happen at night),' Bornas said. Bornas noted that the stolen equipment contains little copper. 'Meron itong (the equipment has) copper, but it's not much,' Bornas said. 'Yung technology kasi yung mahal dyan (the technology is expensive). It's not really the material. It's the technology of a web digitizer.' She further said, 'And of course, in-import pa natin yan from our supplier sa US. Malaki yung importation and custom fees n'yan which we also pay.' (And of course, we also import that from our supplier in the US. The importation and customs fees are high, and we cover those too.) PHIVOLCS also noted that today's theft is the third incident at the station. The first incident was on Oct. 30, 2024, where one solar panel was stolen, while two solar panels were taken on Dec. 17, 2024. Bornas said they had already replaced the stolen solar panels. She added that the area has no CCTV since it drains power, and the station needs to prioritize its monitoring instruments. 'So we still need to come up with a way para makapaglagay tayo ng CCTV system dito sa ganitong station (to install a CCTV system in our station) for safeguarding it,' Bornas said. Under the Risk Reduction and Preparedness Equipment Protection Act, those caught stealing or unauthorized taking, selling, or buying stolen government risk reduction and preparedness equipment will face a penalty of 12 to 15 years of imprisonment or a fine ranging from P1 to P3 million. Meanwhile, PHIVOLCS Director Teresito Bacolcol explained that the stolen equipment poses a danger to the safety of residents covered by the monitoring station. 'Ang equipment na ito ay para sa early warning ng ating mga aktibong bulkan, so nakikiusap kami sa mga residente, hindi lang ng mga active volcanoes, magtulungan tayo at bantayan ang ating gamit,' Bacolcol said. (These equipment is for the early warning of our active volcanoes, so we ask residents, not just those near active volcanoes, to help us protect it.) 'Ito ay para sa ating kaligtasan. Ang pagkawala ng gamit ay hindi lang pagnanakaw sa gobyerno, ito ay pagnanakaw ng proteksyon ng komunidad," he added. (This is for our safety. The loss of this equipment is not just theft from the government, it's theft of the community's protection.) Commissioned in February 2022, the San Jose Observation Station operates a borehole seismic sensor for recording volcanic earthquakes caused by magma intrusion beneath Pinatubo Volcano as well as for detecting tectonic earthquakes for the Philippine Seismic Network. It has provided data for locating volcano tectonic earthquakes generated by deep-seated magma beneath the Pinatubo edifice. Those who may have information on the stolen equipment may contact PHIVOLCS via the following numbers: (+632) 8426-1468 to 79 loc. 310 and 311. — RF, GMA Integrated News

Will Ashley, Xyriel Manabat hope to work together on a project

Will Ashley and Xyriel Manabat did not become a duo in "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," but they are hoping to have the opportunity to work together in the future. Will and Xyriel formed a close friendship inside Bahay ni Kuya and many fans have been rooting for them to become duos as fellow child stars in the showbiz industry. In an interview with GMA News Online on the sidelines of the GMA Gala 2025, Xyriel said she and Will often talked about working together while they were still in PBB. "Lagi kami nagbibiruan and ako for me gusto ko maging totohanan 'yung biruan namin na, 'O ano work tayo ah, paglabas work tayo ah.' Lagi kami nag-gaganun na banter ni Will," she said. "Hopefully since may collab naman na sana maka work ko talaga si Will in the near future," she added. Will echoed the sentiment, saying he would love to work with the Kapamilya actress. "Grabe, hindi ko maisip pa'no magagawa namin sa isang eksena and sana hopefully magka-work kami ni Xyriel," he told GMA News Online. Will and Xyriel also said they would have been each other's next duo if the wildcard round did not happen. "May sinabi siyang ganun sa 'kin so kung panindigan niya 'yun, kami sana 'yung last duo kung sakali," Xyriel said. "Kung 'di bumalik si Ralph [De Leon], yes kami magiging duo dapat ni Xy," Will said. The wildcard round saw the return of Ralph and Charlie Fleming inside Bahay ni Kuya. Subsequently, the housemates faced individual nominations and Xyriel was evicted along with Vince Maristela. Will and Xyriel, along with their fellow housemates, will bring joy to fans at The Big ColLOVE fan con at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Sunday. Tickets for the event are already sold out, but fans can still avail of livestream access. —CDC, GMA Integrated News
