The Superior Court has issued a warrant for the arrest of Nanami DLG Mafnas, who is being accused of assault and is the daughter of Senate president Edith Deleon Guerrero (D-Saipan) and former Department of Public Safety commissioner Ray Mafnas.

Superior Court Associate Judge Joseph N. Camacho signed off last week on an arrest warrant for Nanami DLG Mafnas, 26, on charges of disturbing the peace and assault and battery.

“To any police officer, detective, marshal, or any peace officer in the Commonwealth approved by the written declaration provided before me by [police] detective Sylvan Rangamar on this date, here is an arrest warrant issued for [Mafnas] for the charge of disturbing the peace and assault and battery in violation of the laws of the Commonwealth Criminal Code,” said Camacho.

Pursuant to the arrest warrant, the judge imposed a bail of $5,000 on Mafnas who allegedly assaulted assistant attorney general Keisha Blaise.

Saipan Tribune learned that, prior to the alleged assault, Blaise, a Civil Division lawyer at the Office of the Attorney General, was having a drink with her boyfriend, a fellow Civil Division attorney, and Mafnas at a Kagman residence.

Later, Mafnas allegedly opened the door of Blake’s vehicle, where Blaise was said to have been resting and assaulted her.

No additional information on the case has been made available as of press time. (Kimberly B. Esmores)
