“Your intentions are good. But you should instead appeal to Melissa to tell the truth, so this case can be amicably settled.”
This was the message of businessman Rey Pamaran on Friday to actor Robin Padilla after the latter pleaded that Pamaran should forgive actress Melissa Mendez over their plane dispute.
The response, which was relayed to INQUIRER.net by Atty. Raymond Fortun, is still in connection with March 20 incident when Mendez was offloaded from a Cebu Pacific flight from Manila to Pagadian City after allegedly slapping Pamaran over an argument on seat assignment.

Padilla said on his Instagram post: “Hindi po ako nakikialam bagkus ay nakikiusap, naniniwala po ako na kayong dalawa ay marangal na tao at hindi umaatras sa laban, ngunit nagpakumbaba na po si Melissa at humingi na ng paumanhin at patawad.Malinaw na ayaw na po niyang lumaban pa.Dasal po ng Katipunan ay magkaroon na po ng katapusan ang hindi pagkakaintindihan na ito at magsilbing aral sa lahat ng sumasakay ng eroplano, babae man o lalaki. Ang pagpapatawad po ninyo kay Melissa Mendez ay tatanawing utang na loob ng lupon ng mga Rebolusyonaryong Pangkapayapaan,”
(I am not intervening, but only requesting; I believe you two are honorable people who do not back down from fights, but Melissa has already asked for your forgiveness. It’s clear that she no longer wants to fight. It is the Katipunan’s prayer for an end to this misunderstanding and that this may serve as a lesson to those who ride planes, whether they are a man or a woman. The group of peaceful revolutionaries will be indebted for your forgiveness of Melissa Mendez.)

Pamaran later responded to Padilla, saying that he has already forgiven Mendez but she still has to clear his name that has been smeared because of her false accusations.
“Hindi ko ginusto ang mag demanda at lalo na mag demand ng pera ngunit yun lang ang tanging paraan para mapilitan sya na sabihin yung buong katotohanan. Gusto ko sabihin nya on TV ang totoong nangyayari sa insidente at hindi puro kasinungalingan lang para ma-protektahan lang n’ya sarili nya,” Pamaran said on his Instagram post on Friday.
(I never intend to file a case against her much more demand money from her, but that’s the only way she will be compelled to tell the truth. I want her to tell the whole truth about the incident on TV and not lies just to protect herself).
Pamaran also believed that though Mendez refused to admit the real story, it would still come out, especially when the flight crew and the passengers get to speak about the whole incident.
“Sana maiintindihan nyo po na ako ang binastos, minura, sinaktan ng physical at siniraan ng pagkatao at hindi sya. Binaliktad nya lahat para lumabas na sya ang biktima,” he added.
(I hope you all understand that I was the one humiliated, cursed at, physically hit and whose reputation was tarnished. Not her. She turned everything around and made it appear she’s the victim.)

Pamaran also gave a message for his bashers.
‘Para dun sa mga nagsasabi na mukha akong pera, ito lng masasabi ko, how about this, panu kung si melissa nlng ang bibigyan ko ng 3M para sabihin ang katotohanan? Hindi ko kelangan ang 3M.”
(For those who say that I am just after the money, this is all I can say, how about this, what if I just give Melissa the three million [pesos] so she can tell the truth? I don’t need three million). TVJ
