Jake Cuenca denies being Cedric Lee's victim

The Facebook post of Tony Calvento implied that actors John Lloyd Cruz and Jake Cuenca are also victims of Cedric Lee, the businessman involved in the Vhong Navarro mauling incident in a condo unit in Taguig.

Navarro, in an interview with Boy Abunda that aired Sunday in Buzz Ng Bayan, revealed that Lee and his group tried to extort money from him after he was beaten up and taken a video of with his privates exposed.

Calvento's January 29 post was an update about Navarro's case where he also said that a source told him that the group originally planned to bring the comedian-TV host to a safehouse.

Update on the Vhong Navarro case: I have reliable information that the plan was really to grab Vhong before he enters the condo and bring him to a 'safehouse' where they would be able to do anything with him and later on....(?) Inside the condo were security officers, CCTV cams and even witnesses. This explains why Deniece was by the elevator and was startled to see Vhong that she blurted,' binigla mo naman ako'. She went down the elevator and out of the condo. Her place is only at the 2nd floor of the condo and Cedric Lee and his cohorts could have been parked (there were two cars) outside and could have missed Vhong going inside the condo. All these is providential because in the end, if this did not happen, he would have no tale to tell.

The journalist then added that perhaps it's time for Cruz and Cuenca to start speaking out on their encounters with Lee.

Maybe it's about time that John Lloyd Cruz and Jake Cuenca start to speak on incidents with Cedric Lee. Will publish the whole affidavit of Vhong soon.

Cuenca, however, denied that he ever had any incident with Lee. Talking to ABS-CBN News, he said, "Hindi ko alam [kung] saan nanggagaling na naman 'yung sinama ako do'n pero never akong nabiktima."

He added, though, that he is a friend of Navarro and that he stands by him.

"Definitely kaibigan ko si Vhong, so, I'm standing, you know...Whatever support he needs, andito ako," he said.

Rumors say it was Lee who fired a gun at Cuenca's car sometime ago during the time when he was still dating Lovi Poe, the ex-girlfriend of Ronald Singsong. Lee is allegedly a friend of the Singsons.
