Hold order sought against Tanenglian (Manila Standard Today)

THE PROSECUTION has asked a Quezon City court to issue a hold order against the estranged brother of business tycoon Lucio Tan, Mariano Tanenglian, and his family in connection with the criminal charges filed against them.

Mariano Tanenglian, his wife Aleta, and children Fayette and Maximillian are facing charges of serious illegal detention and child abuse for allegedly hiring one of his housemaids when she was still a minor. They are also accused of mistreating her and keeping her prisoner in the house, which she was not allowed to leave even once.

The proceedings at the family court are confidential, but a notice posted at the court indicated that the prosecution had asked that the accused not be allowed to leave the country.
