NEREIDES Antonio Giamundo de Bourbon, the global marketing head of Bellagraph Nova Group (BN Group), has said that he did not hack the Instagram account of Novu Aesthetics, as alleged by its executive director Marjory Loh.

Ms Loh - sister of Terence Loh, co-founder of Novena Global Healthcare - filed a police report last week on the issue, alleging the hacking by Mr Bourbon and deletion of posts.

He went on to add that not only had he not hacked Novu's Instagram account but "my personal e-mail and Instagram account have been hacked too ..."

"I have been shocked by reading this news because I am in good relationships with Marjory..."
