AFFIDAVIT OF DESISTANCE

        I, Juan del la Cruz, of legal age, single, and a resident of # 123 Main

St., Davao, after having duly sworn to in accordance with law hereby depose
and state:
 
        1. I am the complaining witness for Serious Physical Injuries against
Jesus Santos in the case entitled "People of the Philippines versus Jesus
Santos", Criminal Case No. 12345, Metropolitan Trial Court, Branch
No. 11, City of Davao.
 
        2. After my sober and soul searching assessment and analysis of the
incident, I have realized that because I was not wearing my eyeglasses and it
was dark, I can not point out, without a doubt the accused or any other
person/s who inflicted harm against me.
 
        3. Since I could not state with certainty and without doubt the liability
of Jesus Santos, in fairness to him, I am permanently withdrawing my
complaint against him. I clear him of whatever responsibility or liability to
me.
 
        4. I hereby inform the City Prosecutor of Davao that I
am withdrawing my complaint for Serious Physical Injuries in
Criminal Case No. 12345 entitled "People of the Philippines versus Jesus
Santos", Metropolitan Trial Court, Branch No. 11, City of Davao.
 
        5. I likewise request the Metropolitan Trial Court, Branch No. 11, City
of Davao to dismiss with prejudice the said criminal case.
 
        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I hereby set my hand this 22nd day of
September 2019 at the City of Davao.
