Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:BLP sources Annabelle Huggins (born 1943) is a retired Filipino actress. In 1964 she starred alongside Jack Nicholson in Back Door to Hell, and later became famous when she was kidnapped by taxi driver Ruben Ablaza.

Early life

Annabelle was born to an American-Filipino father and Filipino mother. She was later raised by her aunt and uncle along with her siblings, wherein her aunt treated her as her own child. In 1958 she dropped out of high school to work in a billiard hall where she met Ruben Ablaza.

Career

She debuted in the movie Adonis Abril (1963) with Nestor De Villa, Back Door to Hell with Jack Nicholson (her Hollywood debut),Шаблон:R and also Siyam na Buhay ni Martin Pusa (1964) with Joseph Estrada.

Kidnapping

On 13 October 1962, 19-year-old Huggins reported that she was taken against her will to Hagonoy, Bulacan and defiled of her honor by Ruben Ablaza, a portly taxi driver, who plotted the abduction with two others, Lauro Ocampo and Jose "Totoy Pulis" Leoncio. The incident was repeated on 22 March 1963, and this time, Huggins was reportedly kidnapped from Makati and taken first to Caloocan and then to Bulacan, a more serious offense.

Trial

When Ablaza was apprehended and tried in court, he contended that the two were in love, that she freely went with him and what he did "was the vogue of the time". The most awaited part of the trial was when the principal witness, Huggins, testified before Fiscal Pascual Kliatchko and a curious courtroom crowd.

In 1969 Ablaza claimed that he and Annabelle were a couple.Шаблон:R Ablaza and the two men were found guilty for kidnapping and rape, and were sentenced to death.Шаблон:R While the two men were executed, Ablaza's death sentence was cancelled by then-sitting president Ferdinand Marcos twice and reduced to life imprisonment.
