Guard facing charges for mauling wife in front of mistress' house
ROXAS CITY – A security guard here is facing charges after he has beaten his legal wife black and blue in front of his mistress's house.
Emelda Bernas, 48, recently went to the Women's and Children's Desk of Roxas City police station and told the police about the ordeal she suffered from her husband Jose Bernas, 50, of Barangay Mongpong this city.
She alleged that she was beaten and punched by her husband in front of the house of his mistress in Barangay Libas here.
She suffered bruises and wounds at her face as a result of the beating.
Emelda said, the incident took place at past 7 p.m. Sunday night when she went to the place where her husband and mistress live in.
She said that her husband earlier asked permission to go with his friends at Barangay Baybay this city, however, when she double-checked the whereabouts of her husband from his friends she was not able to find him.
Suspicious, Emelda then went to Brgy. Libas where the house of her husband's other woman is located.
True to what she suspected, her husband was indeed there in the house of his mistress. And when she confronted her husband, Emelda said, it was then that she was beaten black and blue.
Emelda vowed to bring to court her husband.
