Further, Charie Del Rosario, Bianca Gacos, Jayroven Villafuente Balais, and Einstein Recedes were also summoned by the justice department.

“You are hereby warned that failure on your part to comply with this subpoena shall be considered as your waiver to present your defense in this preliminary investigation and the same shall be considered submitted for disposition,” read the subpoena.

The case is with respect to the case of the 18 year old senior high school student Alicia Lucena who was reportedly missing after being allegedly recruited by left leaning organization - Anakbayan.

Her mother, Relissa Lucena, is the complainant and filed the charges with the assistance of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group – Major Crimes Investigation Unit  (CIDG-CIU).

But Alicia had earlier denied he was kidnapped by Anakbayan, saying she left home because her parents allegedly treated her badly for joining an organization which happens to be Anakbayan.
