BY JUDY F. PARTLOW

A suspected rapist was arrested Friday in Tanauan City, Batangas, after about 12 years in hiding, after a criminal case was filed against him for raping his teenage daughter in Dauin town, Negros Oriental in 2003.

The arrest warrant for rape was issued by Regional Trial Court Branch 31 Judge Rogelio Carampatan, who denied him bail.

A police report said the 48-year-old suspect arrived on a commercial flight Saturday afternoon, escorted by Dauin police chief, Sr. Insp. George Badon, and Senior Police Officer 1 Joel Alcala.
