PRAHA, Czech Republic (The Adobo Chronicles) –Diamonds International Corporation (DIC), the Miss Universe sponsor that created the $300,000 crown of the Philippines’ Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach is suing the Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI) for patent violation.
The Czech Republic-based DIC told reporters in Praha that it is suing BPCI, the local franchisee for the Miss Universe Pageant in Manila for unauthorized replication of the bejeweled Miss Universe crown.
BPCI built a float for Wurtzbach for use in the welcome and homecoming parade held yesterday in Metro Manila. The float had a giant canopy which basically re-created the crown.
DIC declined to state the amount that it is suing BPCI for.
