Mga Jalosjos wala pang alam... gma network kinasuhan ng Estafa ang mga opisyal ng TAPE, Inc.

Nagsampa naman ng criminal complaint ang GMA Network, Inc. para sa estafa with abuse of confidence laban sa mga opisyal ng Television and Production Exponents, Inc. (TAPE) para sa diumano’y maling paggamit ng pondo nito na may kabuuang ?37,941,352.56.
Ayon sa inilabas na official statement ng GMA kahapon:
Ang reklamo, na inihain sa Office of the City Prosecutor ng Quezon City, ay pinangalanan ang mga sumusunod na executive ng TAPE bilang mga respondent: Romeo Jalosjos, Jr. (dating presidente at CEO), Romeo Jalosjos, Sr. (Chairman of the Board), Seth Frederick “Bullet” Jalosjos (Treasurer), Malou Choa-Fagar (dating COO at CEO), Michaela Magtoto (former Senior Vice President for Finance) at Finance Consultant Zenaida Buenavista.
“The complaint stems from respondents’ failure to remit advertising revenues collected from clients, which had been contractually assigned to GMA Network under a 2023 Assignment Agreement. Despite multiple formal demands, the funds were not transferred to GMA because they were instead used for TAPE’s operational expenses, in violation of the trust arrangement outlined in the agreement,” bahagi ng official statement ng GMA kahapon.
“GMA Network is pursuing legal action to hold the responsible officers accountable and to recover the misappropriated amount.”
Nag-react kami sa legal counsel ng TAPE na si Atty. Maggie Abraham-Garduque at sinabi niyang : “I called TAPE about the article published at GMA news but they did not know anything about it. I directed one of the alleged respondents in said case to go to the office of the city prosecutor of Quezon City to check on the case but she was informed that no case was filed against them by GMA. Thus, they were surprised of said news article,” sabi niya.
“Anyway, TAPE has not received any copy of the complaint filed against them. They will issue a statement as soon as they received a copy of the complaint, if indeed there is. Rest assured that they will follow and respect the legal proceedings,” ang buong mensahe ni Atty. Maggie.
Maging si Ms. Malou Choa-Fagar na retired employee ng TAPE ay no comment nang hingan namin ng reaction o komento sa pagkakasama ng kanyang pangalan sa demanda.
Maaalalang nang lumipat ang Eat Bulaga ng TVJ sa TV5 ay gumawa ng sariling programa ang TAPE bilang pansamantalang kapalit nito, Tahanang Pinakamasaya, na naging host sina Paolo Contis, Isko Moreno, and Chariz Salomon. Nakasama rin sa programa sina Buboy Villar, Legaspi twins Mavy and Cassy, Betong Sumaya, Alexa Miro, Dasuri Choi, Kimpoy Feliciano, Glaiza de Castro, Michael Sager, Kokoy de Santos, Yasser Marta, Arra San Agustin, and Winwyn Marquez.
