What's 2015 Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach, a Visayan as well as a native of Cagayan de Oro City, got to do with Altaire Endencia, also known as Tei Endencia, a native of Cavite, President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Aquila Crystal Palace, mesmerizing events hall in Tagaytay City?
They were partners in the 2024 Love Gala fundraising project.
Tei is on the hot seat now as he faces a court case involving a bouncing check he issued to one of his investors in his company.
Gaudencio S. Ordoña, Jr., also known as Sonny Ordoña, a graduate of the University of Santo Tomas (UST) Faculty of Arts and Letters major in Journalism, a practising journalist and currently involved in the advocacy of restructuring the Shrine of Jesus in the Holy Sepulcher in San Pedro City has complained on behalf of the People of the Philippines versus Endencia.
According to the documents secured by OpinYon 08, Endencia issued a check to Ordoña worth one million five hundred thousand pesos.
Ordoña said the payment was a percentage he should have received as an investor to Endencia's events styling company.
But Ordoña said that when he posted the check at BDO in Robinsons Galleria South in San Pedro, Endencia's bank account was closed.
However, as per information in the docs, Endencia was advised that his bank account was closed.
Still, Tei failed and refused to pay Ordoña, according to the info sheet.
"Tutuluyan ko na siya. Kriminal ang kaso niya (I will press on. His case is criminal," said Ordona.
I hope Endencia and Ordoña could still patch up their differences.
