Boyfriend of student who accidentally plunged to her death claims she wasn’t taking a selfie

The bereaved boyfriend of Kristina Maria “Nana” Paglilauan, the 19-year-old student who fell to her death from the rooftop of a 20-story condominium in Ermita, has decided to break his silence.

According to Audwin Libot’s Facebook post, Nana wasn’t taking a selfie during the time of her accident.

Unang-una, hindi po siya nagse-selfie noong nahulog. Ni hindi niya nga po dala cellphone niya. Nahulog po siya– period. Taking pictures was never their main agenda sa pagpunta dun. It was an accident at hindi po dapat bahiran ‘yun ng catchy storyline just to sell. Pumunta sila sa taas para manuod ng sunset. We loved sunsets. We love views that take our breath away,” he wrote on Facebook.

(First of all, she wasn’t taking a selfie when she fell. She didn’t even bring her cellphone. She just fell—period. Taking pictures was never their main agenda when they went there. It was an accident and people shouldn’t sensationalize it using catchy storyline just to sell. They went to the rooftop to watch the sunset. We loved sunsets. We love views that take our breath away.)

Libot also accused the tabloid Tempo of sensationalizing Nana’s death and failing to capture the essence of the writeup. He also said that Tempo used their pictures without his permission.

“I consented with an interview with my dear friend who wrote the article hoping she would be able to tell the right story. She wrote the right story but unfortunately her editors opted to look past that and chose the wrong front page headline and the wrong picture,” Libot added.

Libot will be sending a letter to the editors of the said newspaper to ask them to issue an erratum.
