Christine Marie Gonzales, also known as “Beauty” during her stint as housemate in the first staging of PBB in ABS-CBN, is now being held in custody of PNP-CIDG Region 4B unit in this city following her arrest by authorities at about 2:00 AM of November 18 in Batangas Cityport.
According to Police Supt. Ruel Atayde Ferrer, head of CIDG-MIMAROPA (Region 4B), they detained Gonzales and a criminal case for “obstruction of justice” is now being prepared by police investigators after she tried to help in the escape of his brother, Michael Ryan Gonzales, who was arrested last November 14 for alleged “human trafficking” case.
On a tip by informants from a CIDG unit in Visayas area, Ferrer’s men, led by deputy chief of CIDG-MIMAROPA and Oriental Mindoro CIDG head P/Chief Insp. Angela K. Trajano, waylaid a bus load of 38 men and four minors last Thursday in Calapan City port which are about to be boarded on a departing roll-on-roll-off boat.
It was in that incident where Michael Ryan Gonzales was arrested because a reliable information has been received by the Region 4B office of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) that the suspect is leading six commercial buses loaded with people from Caticlan, Iloilo who are to work without necessary legal permits as “sacada” or sugar cane farmers in Enrile, Cagayan Valley.
Meanwhile, Christine or Beauty, the ex-PBB housemate, was arrested when she tried to help her brother Michael to escape after the former visited the latter in the CIDG detention cell here.
