Rufa Mae Quinto, a well-loved actress, faced the court recently for charges related to the violation of the Securities Regulation Code. In simple terms, this law is about making sure businesses and investments are done fairly and legally.
When Rufa Mae appeared in court, she said, “not guilty,” meaning she denies the charges and believes she didn’t do anything wrong.
Neri Naig-Miranda, another well-known actress, was also accused in the same case. However, the court didn’t officially charge her yet because her legal team has filed some requests that need to be reviewed first.
Even though they are facing serious accusations, the two actresses were temporarily allowed to go home. They each posted bail of ₱1.7 million, which is a large amount of money paid to the court to ensure they will return for their hearings.
This story shows how legal cases can take time to resolve and how people have the right to defend themselves in court. Both actresses will continue to face their charges in the coming weeks. For now, they are back with their families while preparing for the next steps in their case.
