Court orders Darryl Yap to remove teaser of 'The Rapists of Pepsi Paloma'

Pauleen Luna expressed gratitude after the Muntinlupa Regional Trial Court Branch 205 partially granted the writ of habeas data filed by her husband, Vic Sotto, against filmmaker Darryl Yap.

The court ordered Yap and his production team to delete and remove the controversial 26-second teaser for his film "The Rapists of Pepsi Paloma" from all online platforms.

The court found the teaser to be malicious and a misuse of data, as it presented a conversation between deceased individuals that cannot be verified.

However, the court ruled that the entire film can proceed with its premiere on February 5, citing artistic freedom and public interest, as well as consent obtained from Paloma's mother and brother.

Luna shared the court decision on social media, calling it a victory for her family.
