Comment on "Texture Zeros and WB Transformations in the Quark Sector of the Standard Model"

Recently, using specific Weak Basis transformations, Y. Giraldo [Phys. Rev. D 86, 093021 (2012)] has constructed some texture 5 and 4 zero quark mass matrices and examined their compatibility with the quark mixing data. In this comment, we have re-analyzed these to bring forth certain important issues regarding their viability which need to be taken note of.
