MANILA, Philippines - Amid Claudine Barretto’s temporary protection order request against him, Raymart Santiago said he is not capable of hurting his family.

In a statament sent to GMA News TV’s afternoon news program “Balitanghali,” the Kapuso actor said he strongly denies Claudine’s accusations and that he will address the issue in court in due time.

Raymart added that they can prove his estranged wife has the capacity to invent stories.

The statement reads: “Matagal akong nanahimik pero dahil sa mga mapanirang akusasyon na ibinibintang sa akin, napilitan akong sumagot para sa kapakanan ng mga anak namin.

Walang katotohanan na inabuso ko ang mga anak ko. At bilang ama, hindi ako gagawa ng hakbang na ikapapahamak ng mga anak ko. Hindi ko siya pinagbuhatan ng kamay. Maraming mga nakakakilala sa akin na makakapagpatunay niyan.

Marami rin ang makapagpapatunay na may kakayahan siyang gumawa ng kuwento.

Again, I strong deny her accusations. Lalabas din ang katotohanan. Sasagutin namin ang lahat sa korte sa tamang panahon.”
