That I, Evangeline P. Pascual, of legal age, Filipino, married and a
resident of Sunshine Valley Homes, Atulayan, Tuguegarao City, and after having been duly sworn to in accordance with law do hereby depose and say;
1. That sometime on September 2017, one CRISTINA TERMULO
DOTOR of legal age, Filipino and a resident of Jasmin st., Lillesville, subdivision, Lawa, Meycauayan Bulacan approached me to borrow a sum of money.
2. That said CRISTINA, offered a document purportedly an Original
Certificate of Title over a parcel of land as collateral for any amount loan I might extend to him.
“A copy of the purported Original Certificate of Title is hereto attached
as Annex “A” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
3. That believing that the above-mentioned document is authentic; I
extended to him a loan in the amount of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PESOS (P100,000) to be paid after twelve months (12) from the execution of the Loan Agreement and with a monthly interest of ten percent (10%).
“A copy of the Loan Agreement dated September 2017 is hereto
attached as Annex “B” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
4. That on November 16, 2017, the same CRISTINA DOTOR
approached me and borrowed additional sum of money amounting to FIFTY THOUSAND PESOS (P50,000) secured by the same Certificate of Title as collateral. Again, on my belief that the said Original Certificate of Title is authentic, I readily lent him the said amount of money.
“A copy of the Loan Agreement dated November 16, 2017 is hereto
attached as Annex “C” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
5. That after both loans have become due, I verbally demanded
payment from CRISTINA DOTOR but he failed to pay the same.
6. That on ________________, I learned that CRISTINA DOTOR
already left her house in Meycauayan Bulacan and could no longer be found. 7. That upon verification with the Land Registration Authority, I found out that the Certificate of Title of a parcel of land delivered to me by said CRISTINA DOTOR as collateral for her loans is not genuine and the Title No. indicated on the said document does not exist.
“A copy of the Information Request Form from the Land Registration
Authority is hereto attached as Annex “D” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
8. That CRISTINA DOTOR, by means of false manifestations which he
made to me to the effect that he is mortgaging a parcel of land for the total loan amount of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND PESOS (150,000.00) and by means of other similar deceits induced and succeeded in inducing me to give and deliver, as in fact I gave and delivered to said CRISTINA DOTOR the amount of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND PESOS (150,000.00) on the strength of said manifestations and representations, said CRISTINA DOTOR well knowing that the same were false and fraudulent, as the Certificate of Title delivered to me is fake and not existing, and were made solely, to obtain, as in fact he did obtain the amount of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND PESOS (150,000.00) which amount once in his possession, with intent to defraud, willfully, unlawfully and feloniously misappropriated, misapplied and converted to his own personal use and benefit, to my damage and prejudice in the aforesaid amount of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND PESOS (150,000.00).
9. That I filed a complaint in the Office of the Punong Barangay of
_____________________________ against CRISTINA DOTOR on ________________.
“A copy of the Complaint dated July 25 2019 is hereto attached as
Annex “E” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
10. That the Office of the Lupong Tagapamayapa of Barangay
_________________, issued __________________ for the filing of appropriate case against Joseph P. Iringan.
“A copy of Endorsement Letter/Certificate to File Action dated
_______________ is hereto attached as Annex “F” and shall form as integral part hereof.”
11. Thus, with all the foregoing, I am executing this complaint-affidavit
to formally charge “CRISTINA DOTOR” with “ESTAFA” defined and penalized under Article 315 (2) (a) of the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines to wit; “Any person shall be liable for Estafa by using a fictitious name or falsely pretending to possess power, influence, qualification, property, credit, agency, or imaginary transactions or by means of similar deceit.”
12. I am further executing this affidavit to attest the truthfulness of the
foregoing facts.
Further affiant sayeth naught.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
