A criminal complaint has been filed against the man who allegedly harassed a female host of It’s Showtime in her condominium unit in Quezon City.

According to a “24 Oras” report by Bernadette Reyes, the suspect, Shervey Torno, is facing a complaint of unjust vexation after his arrest earlier in the day.

The Quezon City Police is conducting further investigation into the incident.

Torno, a model, said sorry to his victim.

“Manghihingi na lang ako ng pasensya,” he said as he faced GMA Integrated News in an interview.

A viral video showed the suspect running away from the host who threatened to report him to authorities.

Torno said he found the victim beautiful and tried to ask for a kiss, but he didn’t intend to harm her.

“Sinundan ko s’ya. Hiningi ko ‘yung pangalan. Sinabi ko na pa-kiss ako, tapos bandang huli sinabi dito sa pulis [na] hinawakan ko daw balakang n’ya, eh hindi naman po totoo. Tsaka po pinasok ko raw sya sa unit nya sa condo, eh di totoo yon. Kaya ko tinulak nang konti ‘yung pinto kasi inipit nya paa ko,” Torno said.

(I followed her. I asked for her name. I asked her for a kiss, then she told the police [that] I held her hip. Then she said I entered the condo unit, but that’s not true. I pushed the door a little because it caught my foot.)
