ABS-CBN refutes accusation that staff and crew did not respect Marky Cielo's family

ABS-CBN issued an official statement this afternoon, December 15, in connection with the accusation that the Kapamilya network "disrespected" the wake of GMA-7 contract artist Marky Cielo.

Reports came out last Friday, December 12, that the staff and crew of different ABS-CBN programs allegedly covered the wake of Marky without permission. It was also reported that Marky's mother, Mildred Cadaweng, confronted the staff and crew of ABS-CBN upon learning that footage of Marky on his coffin was shown in a news program.

But ABS-CBN refuted these accusations. According to their official statement, "ABS-CBN politely and respectfully asked the permission of Mommy Mildred Cadaweng for an interview."
