MANILA, Philippines—At least seven men, including actor Raymart Santiago, ganged up on veteran TV host and Inquirer columnist Ramon Tulfo on Sunday afternoon when he took photos of Santiago’s wife, multi-awarded actress Claudine Baretto, “berating” a ground steward over a mishandled luggage.
Tulfo said he arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 from Davao via a Cebu Pacific flight when he noticed a woman giving a ground staff of the budget airline a vicious dressing down.
“The ground stewardess was on the verge of tears,” Tulfo told the Philippine Daily Inquirer over the phone, recalling what caught his attention before the beating he received.
He said he initially sympathized with the woman after learning from onlookers she had been complaining of “an offloaded luggage,” which had been a subject of critical columns he wrote before. He did not recognize the woman as Baretto until he walked toward the airline’s complaints desk.
Tulfo pulled out his mobile phone and took photos of the scene, which he said would form part of a future column he intended to write, when a man from the actress’ group approached him.
The man, whom he later recognized as Baretto’s husband, Raymart Santiago, “demanded to get my phone which I used in taking shots,” the columnist said, adding he refused to surrender his phone.
Santiago continued to force Tulfo to give his phone to the actor when the latter’s companions came to his side, according to the columnist. Tulfo said he could not recall who threw the first punch because he was ganged up on.
He said he was hit at his blindside as the punches kept coming.
While trying to fight his way out, Tulfo said Baretto, who was nearby, repeatedly cursed him. He admitted that he might have hit the woman with a kick as he tried to fight back at his aggressors.
“This is the real persona of an actress who is always portrayed (in the movies) as a martyr,” he continued, as he pitied the ground staff of Cebu Pacific whom Baretto allegedly berated.
Tulfo said Baretto continued “cussing” him when they met for the second time at the airport police station. “I could only give her a smile as she fumed at me.”
At the same time, Tulfo denounced the NAIA security personnel and the airport police for failing to restrain Baretto’s party as they were restoring order in the area.
He said he already submitted himself to the authorities when they arrived and as they were sorting things out, “somebody lunged behind me and grabbed me by the neck.” The choking lasted a couple of seconds, and Tulfo said he could have passed out if it happened a few moments longer.
The police were preparing the paperwork for the charges Tulfo would be filing against the Santiago couple

Ano say nyo For me, Raymart and Claudine could have handled this incident in a more civil way.... As for Tulfo, news/scope can have a downside to it.

Ang pinoy talaga, pag ganitong mga balita ang bibilis at pinag-uusapang maigi

Sa lahat ng sulok ng bansa na abot ng TV at adik sa artista ang mga tao, sikat yan, mas sikat pa sa problem sa power shortage sa Mindanao at Panatag Shoal.

As if uunlad ang buhay ng mga filipino at iigi ang takbo ng bansa, pupusta pa ako may makikisawsaw na pulitiko sa issue na eto, malamang magpatawag pa ng congressional o senate investigation
