According to reports, the board of Prime Events Production, franchise holder of Manhunt International as well as Mister International in the Philippines, decided to dethrone June Macasaet after failure of the latter to sign a contract with them and potential sponsors declining because of June.

"Because June Macasaet, doesn't want to sign the contract with Prime Events Philippines, we don't want to give his remaining prizes. June is not happy with our decision. As a result, we don't gain any cooperation and support from him," an official statement released September 21 said.

"Manhunt Philippines 2013 is fast approaching, we need a face of the competition for the press presentation, television appearances, sponsorship, website, social media, and official activities of the competition, so Cris will take over the responsibilities," added in the statement.

It is not known whether this will affect the Manhunt International title of June, but according to the released statement, Manhunt International Organization was aware of the situation.

However, in a statement posted in Manhunt Philippines official website, the organizers clarified the dethronement issue.

"June Macasaet has not been dethroned. He [is] always our Manhunt Philippines 2012 winner. However, for some reason, he needs to be replaced by his first runner-up Cris Edwin Navarro to fulfill his obligations as national grand winner," said the statement which was posted Monday.

Manhunt Philippines 2013 will be named this October 4 at the Palacio de Maynila.
