A statement regarding the libel case filed against Michael Sy Lim, the person behind the popular gossip blog Fashion Pulis, was posted on his blog on Wednesday, August 12, 2015.
The libel complaint filed by controversial model Deniece Cornejo, one of those detained in connection with the Vhong Navarro case, led to the arrest of the blogger on Tuesday.
According to the statement released by his legal counsel Atty. Regie Tongol, Lim's "detention was an unfortunate result of a loophole in our criminal justice system, which was taken advantage by some as a means to an end."
The statement further says that Lim has already been released and is ready to face the libel suit. They, however, are yet to see Cornejo's complaint because they "have been deliberately deprived of our right to participate in the preliminary investigation stage."
Here's the full statement:
