MANILA, Philippines -- (UPDATED) Olympic pole vaulter EJ Obiena is set to be dropped from the national training pool of the Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association (PATAFA) after the conclusion of its investigation into the athlete.

The PATAFA on Tuesday unveiled the results of its investigation into Obiena's alleged non-payment of coaching fees to his coach, Ukrainian Vitaly Petrov, as well as his falsification of liquidation documents.

The allegations first came to light in November, with Obiena flatly denying the accusations against him and calling the PATAFA's actions a "textbook example of how to destroy an athlete."

Hindi ko pa alam lahat ng details at facts ng kaso
Pero parang pabaligtad naman itong approach ng PATAFA
Bakit dini discourage ang isang world level top player?

Sana ni resolve na lang muna nang maayos internally
At huwag i distract si EJ, kasi bababa ang morale at bababa chance manalo

Medyo naayos na ito at reinstated na uli si EJ sa National Pool dahil dun sa Senate Hearing.
Pero palpak talaga PATAFA dito dahil athlete mo titirahin in public mabuti na lang matibay loob nung bata hindi aalis ng Philippine Federation.
Check ninyo na lang socmed ni EJ for updates.

Lastly, nanalo nga pala siya kahapon sa Level 1 tournament sa Europe kahapon at 5.81m cleared...
