GMA Network issues Statement on Vhong Navarro's attempted rape issue

This is to clarify that the complainant involved in the Vhong Navarro incident is not related to GMA Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon.

From the moment GMA News learned of the story, it sought the side of Vhong Navarro. Roño, his manager, gave GMA News a written statement,which was aired yesterday. Today, GMA News aired an interview with Navarro's lawyer Atty Alma Mallonga. The report about the alleged attempted rape was based on the blotter filed at the Investigative Section of the Southern Police District where Vhong Navarro was taken after the incident. Other news organizations also reported it.

Meanwhile, read his statement below (Supposedly taken from his Facebook account.Veracity of this statement, however, has not been fully established.)

I’m not a CRIMINAL .
Ang napanood niyong interview is planned by the station, para lumabas na walang kasalanan si vhong.
He clearly had the intention to rape denise at that time, naawa kami kaydenise kaya binugbog namin siya, wala kayong alam sa totoong nangyari kaya wag kayong mang husga agad. Mayayaman kami aanohin namin ang 1m? Wag kayo maniwala sa mga lumalabas sa media, malakas ang kapit niyan ni Vhong sa station kaya’t kaya niyang baguhin ang istorya with the help of media. Sana pakinggan niyo ang side namin.”
This is not about the STATION WAR people, open your minds! Ganyan na ba kayo kabobo? Napakadali niyong maniwala sa mga balita. The main reason here is Vhong Navarro committed ah frustrated rape. Sa madaling salita pinagtatanggol niyo ang isang RAPIST!
Syempre pati ang mga kapamilyang makikitid ang utak at sinusuportahan ang rapist na si Vhong
Social Media for now is Hazardous So Judge-mental Iisang panig lang pinapakinggan niyo makinig naman din kayo sa panig namin.”
Please Don’t Judge Denise Millet Cornejo don’t accuse her she really don’t know what to do that time and we just defend him to Vhong Navarro please stop this Rumors .”
Syempre dinepensahan nya din ang sarili nya, sinabi nya ang mga katagang “I’m not a criminal” at dagdag pa nya “Don’t Hate me for who i am nagpapaka totoo lang”

For the last time, Pinalalabas ni Vhong na iginapos, itinali, at hiningan ng 1m ngunit ang nangyari lang naman talaga ay binugbog namin siya at dinala sa pulis para maiblotter, un lang ang tangi naming ginawa sa kanya, uulitin ko Mayaman kami di namin kelangan ng 1m dahil meron kami nyan. Natatakot lang siyang mabansagang Rapist dahil sa ginawa niya kaya’t nililihis niya ang istorya. Kung totoong normal na gumagana yang pagiisip niyo, hindi kayo basta-basta maniniwala sa mga sinasabi ng Media. Everything you have watched before is carefully planned by the station, 22 nangyari ang panghahalay, bakit nung 24 lang nilabas ng media ang issue? Para lalo kaming madiin ni denise!”
Ipag tatanggol ko ang friend ko sa mga akosasyon niyo mag labasan na ng ebidensya . kung kinakailangan

Nonsense Issue Vhong is a Rapist .
Hindi namin papatayin si Vhong pinag tanggol lang namin ang babae na binastos niya . kung kayo may babaeng kaibigan pag binastos diba ipag tatanggol niyo lumaban kasi si vhong at binitawan kami ng mga salitang hindi ka aya-aya."
