A barangay chairman and his treasurer were caught having sex during an online Zoom meeting of barangay officials in Dasmariñas City, Cavite.
Brgy. Fatima 2 chairman Jesus Estil could be facing charges because of the sex video which happened inside the barangay hall while they were at a video conference meeting.
It was learned that Estil and all barangay officials of the city would have scheduled a zoom meeting to discuss COVID-19 cases in their barangays.
Estil thought that the camera of his cellphone was off, so he approached his treasurer, and they had sex while all the barangay officials of the city watch.
The residents of the barangay have petitioned for their captain to step down.
Meanwhile, the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) said it would investigate the barangay captain and treasurer involved in the sex video in Dasmariñas, Cavite.
“Nakita ko ito sa social media na may ganitong kaganapan sa Dasmariñas, Cavite. This is very unfortunate dahil napanood ng mga ka-barangay nung mga miyembro ng konseho ng barangay yung nangyari at the same time nangyari pa sa loob ng barangay hall,” DILG spokesman and Undersecretary Jonathan Malaya told ABS-CBN’s Teleradyo.

Barangay chairman, treasurer caught having sex during Zoom meeting in Cavite
(I saw this on social media about this incident in Dasmariñas, Cavite. This is very unfortunate because other barangay officials and members of the council saw this at the same time it happened inside a barangay hall.)
“Kaagad agad pa-imbestigahan natin sa regional office kung ano yung mga posibleng violation nito dahil this is a conduct of unbecoming of a public official. Mayroong code of conduct of public officials, mukhang maraming nalabag na mga probisyon sa batas na ‘yun,” he added.
(We immediately ordered our regional office to investigate the possible violations in this incident because this is conduct of unbecoming of a public official. We have a code of conduct of public officials and we think there are provisions there that were violated.)
Update: Jorge Magno, president of the Association of Barangay Captains (ABC) Dasmariñas, said that the barangay officials already resigned after engaging in the reported illicit act. He also noted that the barangay chairman apologized over the sex video.
