“He is concerned and disturbed that irresponsible parties use his name with questionable intentions that mislead unsuspecting members of the public; that’s why he lodged a police report.,” Kestrek Capital stated.
“Netizens should also refrain from circulating and reposting these false claims,” the firm added.
