MANILA, Philippines?(UPDATE 2) Controversial cosmetic surgeon Dr. Hayden Kho has been placed on the Bureau of Immigration watch list after sexy actress Katrina Halili filed a complaint against him over video clips that spread on the Internet showing their escapades.

Immigration Commissioner Marcelino Libanan said Kho was placed on a hold departure list on orders of Justice Secretary Raul Gonzalez.

?Once he return, we will immediately report it to the Department of Justice,? Libanan said.

A video supposedly of Kho and Halili having sex got posted on pornographic websites on the Internet. Videos showing steamy dance scenes of the two have been uploaded on the popular video-sharing site YouTube.

Gonzalez ordered the BI to place Kho on its watch list ?to prevent his leaving the country and to ensure his presence in the ongoing investigation.?

Gonzalez said the watch list could cause the immigration authorities to bar Kho from leaving the country for 60 days.

?He can be stopped from leaving and we can impose conditions if we will eventually allow him,? Gonzalez said.

Gonzalez instructed the National Bureau of Investigation to look into Kho?s possible violation of the Violence Against Women and Children Act provision against treating women and children as sex objects, forcing them to commit indecent acts and making films of them.

He said Senator Ramon Revilla, Jr., requested the DOJ to look into the matter of Kho?s sex videos and to place the doctor on the immigration watch list.

?He can be charged under RA 9262 (the VAWC law). There?s a specific provision,? Gonzalez said.

?Under Section 3, treating a woman or a child as a sex object? or forcing a woman the woman or a child to do indecent acts and or make films thereof,? he added.

Gonzalez said the persons behind the production of the video and its proliferation may be held liable either as accessories or accomplices in the commission of the crime.

He said those behind the video should seek professional help.

?Even the one who is instrumental for doing that should have probably to undergo some psychological (treatment),? Gonzalez said.

?Just what do you get out of that? To prove your manhood? Or are you an exhibitionist?? he added.

Asked whether he thought Kho should be stripped of his license, Gonzalez said: ?Well, that?s unprofessional conduct.?
