Blackwater to launch inquiry on Uvero allegations on Desiderio


Hours after saying that their team is waiting for Paul Desiderio’s consent on whether they should intervene in his personal affairs, Blackwater changed course.

The Ever Bilena-owned PBA team will also launch an inquiry regarding allegations raised on their player by his ex-partner Agatha Uvero.

The case is sensitive as Uvero raised that Desiderio hit her on multiple occasions.

“We will look into the allegations against our player, Mr. Paul Desiderio, and gather the necessary facts and evidence to come to a conclusion,” read Blackwater’s statement on Wednesday evening.

“Rest assured that we will do our part to uncover the truth.”

Blackwater drew flak on Wednesday after taking a “wait-and-see” stance regarding the matter.

The PBA itself is launching an investigation regarding it.

Blackwater also reiterated that as a company, it condemns any form of violence, especially against women and children.

“Blackwater condemns any forms of violence against women and children. We believe women and children deserve nothing less than our love, care, and honor,” it said.

“We respect the statement released by Ms. Agatha Uvero, as well as the privacy of our player during this time. In the meantime, we reserve the right to comment on any further news on this issue.”
