Sandro Muhlach lamented how he will “never be the same again” after the alleged sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of GMA independent contractors Jojo Nones and Richard Cruz.

The young actor said this through his Instagram Stories on Friday, Aug. 23, after the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) released the CCTV footage from the hotel where the alleged incident happened.

The footage, according to NBI investigator Zulikha Marie Conales, showed Muhlach’s behavioral changes after meeting with Nones and Cruz at the hotel, which apparently indicated that the actor indeed suffered from a traumatic event.

“Habang buhay ko dadahin ito,” Muhlach captioned the screenshots from the CCTV footage. “Dalawa kayo at isa lang ako. I will never be the same again.”

“Some people can never comprehend how hard it is to be in this traumatic situation. Luring someone will never be a consent to abuse,” he stressed.

Muhlach, who is suffering from anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), filed a complaint of rape through sexual assault and acts of lasciviousness against Nones and Cruz before the Department of Justice (DOJ) last Aug. 19.

The alleged sexual abuse is also being investigated in the Senate by the committee on public information and mass media, as part of the investigation on sexual abuse in the entertainment industry.

During the Aug. 19 hearing, Sen. Jinggoy Estrada cited Nones for contempt for denying that he offered to donate money to a chosen charity by Sandro’s father, actor Niño Muhlach, as settlement.
