Story here. Excerpt:

'Bacolod Regional Trial Court Judge Ray Alan Drilon has annulled the marriage of a Negrense couple after a DNA test showed that the child borne by the wife was not the biological offspring of the husband who works abroad.

The family court judge ruled that the marriage of the couple, whose names are being withheld by the DAILY STAR on the request of the court, was null and void.

Due to fraud committed by the wife in getting her overseas worker husband to marry her, properties acquired during their marriage are awarded in favor of the husband, the judge said in his decision, a copy of which was furnished the DAILY STAR yesterday.'

common sense, justice, sanity, refreshing?

when was the last time you heard, or had reason to
use these type words to describe our western
joke of a judicial system?

speaks volumes, doesn't it?

and the media reported on it.

i'll add another word to describe it,

astonishing!
