Hostage situation by father involves child, allegations of inappropriate conduct arise
In the wee hours of Tuesday, April 29, 2025, a bizarre hostage situation unfolded within a household in Barangay Cambitoon, Inabangga, Bohol. At about 5:40 am, a construction worker, presumed to be 55, held his wife hostage, an event that spiraled from the routine calm of their shared abode.
Known under the alias Mirasol, the wife, aged 45, is a cornerstone of her family, standing by her husband, a construction worker, referred to as the altered moniker, Gino. The hostage situation escalated from a friction that weaved through their relationship.
Initial reports indicate that the husband's ill-temper arose when his wife refused to abandon her personal endeavors.

The elusive suspect evaded capture initially, carrying a bloody knife, demanding that he be allowed to escape. However, Mirasol, having fought to free herself, managed to alert the authorities about the intruder's whereabouts.
- The assailant was subsequently taken into custody by the police and transported to the Dagohoy Memorial Hospital for medical examination. He was later moved to the police station for further questioning.
Investigations revealed that the husband was allegedly employed to care for the couple's children, making his wife's employment crucial to their financial stability. However, the wife left her job due to a lack of sufficient income, a decision that seemed to upset her husband, leading to the hostage incident.
Reports concerning this case primarily focus on the husband and wife, with no mention of another unnamed victim, "Gino", or any Barangay Cambitoon residents apart from the family involved in the domestic dispute. If "Gino" refers to the perpetrator, it contradicts all sources that only depict him as an anonymous construction worker.
- The hostage situation in Barangay Cambitoon, Cebu, in April 2025, saw the local police force, led by Captain Albert Sator, respond to a report from the Barangay Captain about an altercation between Mirasol and Gino, a construction worker.
- During the standoff, Mirasol, also known as the wife, managed to signal the authorities about the assailant's location, eventually leading to his capture and transport for medical examination.
- The investigation revealed that the husband's distress stemmed from his wife leaving her job, which was necessary for their family's financial stability as he was responsible for taking care of their children.
- Contrary to initial descriptions, "Gino" appears to have been the suspect in this domestic crime-and-justice incident, not just an anonymous construction worker, as reported in general news.
