MANILA, Philippines ? Actor Aljur Abrenica was a no-show during the first preliminary investigation on the sexual harassment complaint filed against him by a 15-year old girl.

During Wednesday?s probe, only the complainant appeared before the Department of Justice (DOJ).

But the justice department, through state prosecutor Amanda Felipe, required the 19-year-old GMA television talent to submit his counter-affidavit during the next preliminary investigation on October 21.
