MIAMI.- “I have known Franklin Virguez for forty years and more,” is how the address of a post published by the renowned Venezuelan actress Flor Núñez begins on her Instagram portal.
The publication of the actress with a renowned career in her country, Puerto Rico and the United States, occurs following an accusation published against Virguez, which has been echoed by the media, where the actor is accused of improper public conduct.
Núñez adds: “More than my friend Franklin Virguez is my brother; I know him very well. He has always been what he is, a complete man, who neither smokes, nor drinks, nor has he used drugs, none of that,” says the actress.
“On the other hand, he does spend his time in the gym, doing exercises. He is very healthy and a wonderful person, a great friend, a great family member, because he is my family,” he says. And in addition to that, he has done wonderful work for the theater in Venezuela and here in the United States as well. He has always taken great care of the quality of what he does, respect for others.”
And Núñez adds, “Virguez tells great truths on his social networks. Documented truths.”
His opinion regarding what was recently published about Virguez is that it is speculation from people who do not know him and do not know that accusing is improper, that it is necessary to first know who the person is. “That’s why I tell you what kind of person he is,” warns Núñez.
Regarding the act of which he is being accused, Núñez says: “I hope, as we say in Venezuela, ‘I refer to the evidence’ because I believe in Franklin and I know how honest and good a citizen he has been and is.”
More than 5,000 followers of the actress have reacted to this publication by the actress at the time of writing this note, prepared from concerns received in the editorial office of DIARIO LAS AMÉRICAS, by other people who know about the actor’s career. They support the statement in favor of Virguez and among these there are no shortage of those who claim, “everything that is happening with Mr. Virguez is a political issue.”
To this last argument it could be added that those who know Virguez identify him as a frontal political activist against the Venezuelan regime and who is characterized by clearly expressing his opinions about the reality of his country and making them public.
Following the journalistic report that echoed an alleged accusation by someone who claims to have recorded Mr. Virguez inside his car; Citizens who are aware of his habit of systematically practicing physical exercises, present the hypothesis that at the time when the person who made the accusation claims to have seen his private parts, Mr. Virguez may have been changing clothes inside his car and for that reason, he was exposed, which generated the impression of improper conduct; However, they say, this assumption is not consistent with the good moral character that those who know Virguez closely claim identify him.
With this note, which launches an exhortation to offer Mr. Virguez the opportunity to show his innocence, if that were the case, DIARIO LAS AMÉRICAS responds to the request arising from the clamor of many admirers of the actor who have followed his career, consider him a good citizen and reject the hypothesis of the reported incident.
