first draft: Thu July 30, 2015
PENAMPANG. The Native Court here will re-issue another
warrant of arrest for a 48 year old truck driver for failing to appear in court
today.
The defendant Obol @ Abel Jacob whose name have been
allowed to be published by the court has been given more than enough letters
and summons to come to the court but he had simply ignored them all. The last
summon was delivered by a Native Chief himself accompanied by a court clerk and
driver at a workers quarters in Inanam, yet his wife as the plaintiff said he
even phoned her to say he will not be coming.
Speaking from the bench, District Chief Bryan Matasing
together with Native Chief Andrew S Lidaun and Village Chief John Molingun said
this has become a serious contempt of court where the defendant has no excuse
at all. “No one is above the law and I will be telephoning the OCPD about this”,
Matasing added.
A previous warrant of arrest was issued last year but it
was not known why the warrant was not carried out. The case has been pending
since 2013 and the truck driver has now totally abandoned his wife and seven
children choosing to live with a Filipina with whom the marital status is
unknown.
After the court was adjourned, the wife together with 6
of her children who came to the court said that her fifth child has already
died and the husband did not even bother while he was ill. He did come to the
hospital as a visitor only when the kid was already seriously ill.
