In a proactive move against the propagation of misleading information, Kapamilya actor-singer Marlo Mortel has stepped forward to counter a malicious post circulating on social media that falsely implicates him.
The actor responded to a Facebook user, identified as Yuki Zaragosa with the username @imaw.adamyan12, who had accused Marlo of making unwarranted advances toward Yuki’s alleged partner. Yuki had posted an open letter online, prompting Marlo to address the issue.
Marlo took to his Facebook account to emphasize the potential dangers associated with the dissemination of “fake news.” He disclosed that he possesses evidence in the form of screenshots, showing Yuki’s alleged involvement in creating fake accounts that targeted him with online harassment.
Marlo issued a stern caution to Yuki, highlighting the repercussions of engaging in cyberbullying and the seriousness of such actions in accordance with the law. He raised questions regarding Yuki’s claims about interactions with him and the purported partner, expressing bewilderment over the alleged conversations.
Denying Yuki’s accusations, Marlo refuted claims about owning a condominium unit and engaging in a relationship as described in the post. He underscored the legal implications of making false accusations that can lead to detrimental consequences for individuals.
Yuki, whose profile lacks a display picture, accused Marlo of repeatedly inviting the alleged partner to events and claimed that Marlo was attempting to involve the partner in what Yuki termed a “party circus.” Furthermore, Yuki alleged Marlo’s involvement in suggesting a sexual encounter involving the partner, in a colloquially termed “threesome.”
Yuki asserted that Marlo had attempted to intoxicate the partner during their interactions and alleged that Marlo ignored messages sent by Yuki.
Additionally, Yuki accused Marlo of pressuring the partner to visit the actor’s condominium. It’s important to note that making potentially defamatory statements online can be subject to legal consequences under the country’s cybercrime law.
