KINUMPIRMA ni Kris Aquino ang ipinahayag ni Pangulong Noynoy Aquino na kidnap plot ng Abu Sayyaf sa kanya at sa isa niyang anak at kay Rep. Manny Pacquiao at isa ring anak nito sa statement bilang sagot niya sa nagtanong na taga-Philippine Daily Inquirer at iku-quote namin si Kris:

“Honest truth, I was made aware of this plot late February, early March. My sisters tried to shield me because they didn’t want me to have more fear than necessary. If you recall, my sons and I left in March to go abroad for three weeks. The health reasons I cited were’nt fabricated because the stress coming from the threat had caused my BP to constantly elevate to higher than 150/110.

“I didn’t renew with ABS-CBN because of this threat. That was a painful decision, but I needed to make that judgment call so as not to expose others to harm. It was that serious that I walked away from a new two-year contract for a job I’fe loved for 20 years. I informed my bosses the pertinent facts, but not full details from the intelligence reports, and they kept what I was allowed to relay to them under wraps. I was told to strictly keep the news contained and I obeyed. And I am grateful for the respect I was shown.

“And to their credit, everybody closest to me -- both co-workers, relatives and friends -- kept quiet to protect me and because they knew this was a matter to be tken seriously with utmost precaution.

“We left Palm Sunday and returned for my endorsement work commitments second week of April. You can check my IG feed from March onwards -- there have been very few location specific posts, and since our return, the two boys and I have need living with PNoy.

“If you’ll use this text -- I hope I am quoted verbatim. I read and re-read my text to you four times to make sure I didn’t reveal more than what I have knowledge of and what is safe to share.”

Lumalabas na hindi lang health reason, kudi security reason din ang dahilan ng bakasyon nina Kris, Bimby at Josh.

Security reason din ang rason para hindi muna sabihin ni Kris kung saan sila magbabakasyon na mag-iina.

Ang basa namin dito, hanggang nasa poder ni PNoy sina Kris, ibig sabihin, may banta pa rin sa kanilang kaligtasan.
