Women's rights groups in the Philippines have filed a complaint against the leading presidential candidate for saying he should have been first in line to gang-rape an Australian woman who was attacked and killed in a Philippines prison. Rodrigo Duterte - who is leading in polls for the May 9th election - later apologised for his remarks. One of the women who filed the complaint with the Human Rights Commission is Ana Maria Nemenzo (Photo: Davao City Mayor and Presidential Candidate Rodrigo Duterte speaks to reporters in Lingayen, 2 March 2016.
