HINDI palalampasin ng asawa ni former Anakalusugan partylist Rep. Mike Defensor si National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) director Melvin Matibag kaugnay ng alegasyong sangkot ang pamilya ng dating kongresista sa sex trafficking at iligal na droga.
“I am issuing this statement to categorically and forcefully deny the baseless, malicious allegations directed at me, my daughter, and our associated businesses,” wika ni Mrs. Julie Defensor.
“Let me be absolutely clear regarding the recent NBI operation: we have absolutely no connection to the targeted establishment or its operations. Any attempt to link our family to the abhorrent acts allegedly committed there is a deliberate, dangerous, and desperate lie,” himutok ng ginang.
Hamon ni Julie Defensor kay Matibag — ilabas ang tapang sa asawang dating congressman.
“If you have a political or personal grievance with Mike, have the courage to resolve it with him directly. Stop using me, our daughter, and hundreds of innocent displaced workers as collateral damage in a dispute that has nothing to do with us,” pasaring pa niya.
“As a mother, my priority will always be the protection of my family. We will not be bullied, silenced. or intimidated by these cowardly tactics. We will exercise the full extent of the law to clear our names, expose this harassment, and hold those responsible accountable.”
“This is a fabricated pretext designed to artificially manufacture a case, with the chilling goal of filing unwarranted, unbailable charges against me and my daughter,” aniya pa.
“This is part of a relentless pattern of harassment, and the collateral damage is devastating. Because of these political attacks, approximately 1,000 hardworking employees across various companies have abruptly lost their jobs- simply due to a perceived association with my husband, Mike.”
