Marikina solon faces sexual assault charges
Manila Bulletin
|September 26, 2025
Marikina City Rep. Marcelino “Marcy” R. Teodoro has been charged before the Department of Justice (DOJ) for allegedly sexually assaulting two policewomen who were then his close-in security personnel.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Sept. 25, the DOJ said that Teodoro will be afforded full due process. It said the identities of the complainants were withheld to safeguard their privacy and security.
The charges will be acted on impartially and will be resolved only on the bases of evidence submitted and the applicable laws, the DOJ said.
Under Department Circular No. 20, the DOJ said “the complaints will undergo case buildup and legal evaluation to determine sufficiency of evidence before any preliminary investigation.”
The preliminary investigation of a criminal charge will determine if a case will be filed in court.
The DOJ said one of the complainants alleged that Teodoro committed acts of lasciviousness under Article 336 of the Revised Penal Code (RPC).
The other complainant, it also said, served as security detail for Marikina Mayor Maan Teodoro who is the congressman's wife.
