Filipina Celebrity Manager Annabelle Rama Accused of Child Abuse?

Seems like Annabelle Rama eats lawsuits for breakfast. Eventually the lawsuits she file or filed against her were settled eventually. But this time, she is hit with a child abuse lawsuit. Annabelle Rama’s roster of talents? She can make you famous, in unflattering way though.

Talent manager Annabelle Rama-Gutierrez is facing child abuse raps for allegedly making two of her minor talents work more than 40 hours a week, sometimes interfering with their school schedule.

The four-page complaint was filed on Friday before the Quezon City prosecutors’ office by Nadine Montenegro Pla, better known in show biz as Nadia Montenegro, on behalf of her two daughters aged 15 and 17.

The mother described Rama as a family friend and manager who signed a five-year contract for Pla’s two children to appear on TV.
Republic Act No. 7610 or the Anti-Child Abuse Act prescribes that a child cannot work for more than 40 hours a week, while a memorandum of the Department of Labor and Employment prescribes that an employer cannot make a child work during school hours.

Pla also lodged a complaint for oral defamation against Rama for allegedly circulating rumors about her two daughters – one had supposedly contracted a sexually transmitted disease, while the other had allegedly been raped.
