Hayden Kho Jr. now a women's rights advocate


Doctor Hayden Kho Jr., who had once been called "a pervert of the highest kind" by a senator due to his sex videos with various female partners, is now a staunch supporter of women's rights. “You are looking at a different Hayden," Kho said during the launch of the white ribbon campaign for women's rights by the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM). Kho has been accused of violating Republic Act 9262 or Anti-Violence Against Women and Children Act by actress Katrina Halili, one of his partners in his sex videos. Halili, a former girlfriend of Kho, claimed the video was shot and uploaded on the Internet without her knowledge and consent.
Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr., in a privilege speech delivered last May, called Kho a "pervert of the highest kind" and initiated an investigation on the sex video scandal. Kho said his lawyer, Lorna Capulong, has been lecturing him about women’s rights during the past months. “She (Capulong) has been lecturing me and talking to me about women and women’s rights," he said. The doctor likewise urged the public to join the anti-violence against women campaign. “I encourage everyone, especially men, to join the crusade," he said. - GMANews.TV
