Just like her sister, Doctor Tricia Robredo has also sought the assistance of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to look into the spread of fake lewd videos of her circulating online.

In a statement released to the media on Tuesday, April 26, the camp of Robredo said Tricia sought the NBI’s assistance to determine possible cyber crimes committed against her, through a letter dated Friday, April 21.

Her legal counsel Pinky Bernabe said that the mere use of Dr. Robredo's name on these online posts is tantamount to gender-based online sexual harassment under Republic Act No. 11313 or the Safe Spaces Act.

"If these perpetrators are not unmasked and prosecuted before the courts, other persons might be subjected to the same vicious and criminal acts," the letter read.

"Our client is never one to seek special treatment. We hope the NBI would identify the perpetrator/s behind these posts," it added.

Tricia's letter came just days after her older sister Aika also requested help from NBI in probing the fake lew videos of her spreading online.

On Thursday, Robredo's camp said in a statement that Aika, through a lawyer, requested assistance from Atty Michelle Valdez, officer-in-charge of the NBI Cybercrime Division, for the investigation of possible cybercrimes and violations of special criminal laws and the Revised Penal Code in the spread of the videos.

Their camp also asked NBI to authenticate and track the source of the 60 URLs that showed fabricated videos of Robredo.

The Robredo sisters, Aika, Tricia, and Jillian have been leading the volunteers of their mother to house-to-house campaigning across outskirt provinces in a bid to convince supporters to vote for Robredo in the upcoming national elections.
