After the investigation was established, authorities found out that parents of Chua will be included in filling of the case as it appears that her father had fetched her at the Berjaya Makati hotel at 11:40 p.m. after she arrived on December 22, and it was her mother who transported her back to the hotel at around 9 p.m. on December 25.
