"AFUANG: BOUNTY HUNTER"


Inquirer photo

Last Thursday’s Senate inquiry on the sex video scandal involving cosmetic surgeon Hayden Kho and sexy actress Katrina Halili turned into a circus. A man poured bottled water on Kho, who remained unbothered and unaffected in his seat. The man was ordered arrested and detained. The man turned out to be Abner Afuang, an ex-police officer and former Pagsanjan, Laguna mayor. Afuang, who caused a scene when he burned the Singaporean flag at the height of rallies to save convicted Filipino Flor Contemplacion from hanging in Singapore in 1995, was not apolegetic. He added that while he had no intention to show disrespect to the Senate, he felt a surge of emotion when he took his seat at the Senate hearing. But he said that when a waiter brought him a bottle of water, “nagdilim ang paningin ko, galit ako sa mga walanghiya [everything went dark for me, I really hate jerks)."He also said he was mad at Kho because his only daughter, who he said is a nursing student in the United States, looked like Halili.

Did you know that a movie was made in 1988 based on his life as a policeman? The movie, aptly titled “Afuang: Bounty Hunter,” starred Phillip Salvador, who happened to be in the Senate floor when the incident took place.

Marami nang pulitikong nakikisawsaw. Kawawa naman ang mga taong involved, lalong nakakaladkad sa kahihiyan. Meron kayang mangyari sa investigation sa Senado? Sigurado wala, dahil halos lahat ng investigation nila, walang nangyari hanggang sa ngayon!
