Gary David refused to speak about the alleged case filed by his wife, saying that he will only talk about it once he receives the subpoena and in the proper venue.
“Hindi pa ako magsasalita kasi wala pa akong natatanggap na subpoena na galing sa judge,” the 38-year old gunslinger shared.
“Kaya hindi pa ako puwedeng magsalita. Kung saka-sakali man na naka-file na ‘yun, sa korte na lang kami mag-uusap.”
In a story by SPIN.ph, the publication has obtained documents filed by Jenny Rose David at the Office of the City Prosecutor in Quezon City. The alleged suit revolves around a claim that David had violated the Republic Act 9262, known as the Anti-Violence Against Women and Children Act.
David though claims that he has not heard about it, only knowing about the annulment suit the married couple filed.
“Hindi pa natin alam kung totoo man ‘yun. Pero ang totoo, nag-file na ako ng annulment.
“Na-receive na niya ‘yun kaya ‘yun na lang ang pag-uusapan namin sa korte. Para lumabas ‘yung katotohanan, kung ano man ‘yung baho or kahihiyan na ginawa niya. Dun na lang,” the 13-year league veteran furthered. “Ayaw ko muna pag-usapan ‘yung ganiyan. Hintayin ko na lang yung subpeona.”
A father of four children, David vows to be professional as he goes through this ordeal. He even played in Mahindra’s 80-109 loss to the San Miguel Beermen on Wednesday night, scoring 13 markers in 15 minutes of action.
“Sa akin, ever since, kung ano man ang problema ko, hindi ko [pinapabayaan] ang trabaho ko,” David, who is also serving as an assistant coach to the Lyceum Pirates, said.
“Ito ang source ng kabuhayan ko at ito yung nagbibigay sa akin ng kasiyahan. Kung naapektuhan ako dito, ano pa ikakabuhay ko? Kaya isinasantabi ko na ‘yun every time na maglalaro ako, maski sa practice. Hindi nila makikitang apektado ako.
“Basta laro lang hangga’t kaya,” the four-time scoring champion stated.
