Rufa Mae, sinagot ang pagkakadawit sa scam

Kinumpirma ng abogado ni Rufa Mae Quinto sa ABS CBN noong Lunes ng gabi (December 2) na may arrest warrant nga ang kanyang kliyente kaugnay ng pagkakasangkot nito sa  parehong kaso ng former actress / businesswoman na si Neri Miranda na kasong estafa sa kumpanyang Dermacare.

Pero nilinaw ni Atty. Mary Louise Reyes na ang arrest warrant ay hindi para sa syndicated estafa kundi para sa 14 counts ng paglabag sa Section 8 ng Securities Regulation Code.

Sinasabi ng abogado ng mga nag-demanda na diumano’y na umabot pala sa 39 ang iningganyo nina Rufa Mae at Neri na mamuhunan sa isang kumpanya na walang lisensya para sa paghingi ng mga investment.

Naglabas na rin ng statement si Rufa Mae na itinatanggi ang pagkakasangkot niya rito :  “I have no connection whatsoever to any fraudulent activity and I categorically deny these baseless accusations. If anything, I am also a victim and I am determined to seek justice,” umpisa ng kanyang statement na inilabas sa social media.

“Over the years, I have worked tirelessly to build my career and maintain my untarnished reputation, which is rooted in integrity and dedication. As a public figure, I have always demonstrated professionalism, transparency, and respect for the people and brands I work with. It is dejecting to see my name being dragged through the mud, but I remain steadfast and confident that the truth will soon prevail.”

Dagdag niya pa : “I will cooperate fully with the authorities and face this issue through the proper legal forum. Rest assured, I will fight for my name and reputation. To those who have extended their love and support, I am grateful. Let us allow justice to take its course, and I humbly ask for your patience and understanding as the truth unfolds.”
