Soldiers may be quick with their triggers, and sometimes also with their hands.

A military general was relieved from his post on Thursday after he was charged with a sexual harassment case filed at the Sandiganbayan by the Office of the Ombudsman on Valentine’s Day.

Brigadier General Noel Miano was suspended for six months after his victim, a classmate of his daughter who worked as his part-time secretary, claimed that he groped her on the chest and thighs and kissed her, according to the records at the Sandiganbayan.

The incident happened in 2011 when Miano was still a colonel serving at the Munitions and Control Center and the victim was just 18-years-old.

According to Lieutenant Colonel Ramon Zagala, Armed Forces of the Philippines Spokesman, Miano is currently relieved of his duties at the Headquarters Service Group while serving the suspension.
