"On Friday, 14 October 2022, the purported "owner" or "Major shareholder" of an alcohol product made an announcement on multiple social media platforms accompanied by a manipulated image of Kiernan "AKA" Forbes, alleging that AKA is the alcohol product's new brand ambassador.
"AKA enjoys a longstanding, successful and groundbreaking partnership with Cruz Vodka. The announcement is ill-considered and has and still continues to violate AKA's rights to have his likeness and image protected by law.
