00:00 [Filipino newsreel narration]
00:27 - Attorney, good morning. - Good morning to you too.
00:29 - Well, as St. Tonino said, I don't like that. - Don't get confused.
00:33 - Keep it solemn. - It's not in the spirit.
00:35 Attorney, nowadays, there are parties in different places.
00:40 When there are such confusions, what are the causes of them?
00:44 For example, someone got hurt or got injured in such confusions.
00:48 Well, it depends.
00:49 Because if it's just a ramble and no one got hurt,
00:53 but people got scared and got confused,
00:56 especially if it's because of a drunk person.
00:58 And it's obvious, because he's drunk.
01:00 He's confused.
01:02 There can be a case for alarm and scandal
01:05 under Article 155 of the Revised Penal Code.
01:08 If the public disturbance was serious,
01:11 this is a case of tumultuous disturbance
01:15 or other disturbances of the public order
01:17 under Article 153.
01:19 So actually, these are the same crimes for creating a public disorder.
01:24 The disturbance is more serious
01:26 and the penalty is more severe.
01:28 The more disturbing, the more severe.
01:30 Of course, if it's not just a disturbance but a tumult,
01:33 the case is still a case for physical injuries,
01:37 whether it's serious or less serious,
01:40 or slight physical injuries.
01:41 We'll find out who joined this tumult.
01:46 Usually, because there's CCTV or something like this,
01:50 caught on, maybe, a cell phone camera,
01:54 we'll find out who's the criminal.
01:57 But if it's a spontaneous disturbance
01:59 where there are a lot of people involved,
02:01 we have a crime under Article 252 of the Revised Penal Code,
02:05 the so-called physical injuries in a tumultuous affair.
02:09 This is a crime of a disturbance
02:10 where more than four people are involved
02:13 and someone got killed or injured,
02:14 and there were serious or less serious physical injuries.
02:18 And we don't know who did it.
02:20 Anyone who can identify the perpetrator
02:24 will be punished.
02:25 It's like someone raised their hand to the victim.
02:27 But if the injuries are not too serious,
02:32 actually, there's no penalty.
02:33 Maybe the law is saying,
02:35 "You're on your own."
02:36 Like, if you joined a tumult,
02:39 you should know that you'll get hurt.
02:41 So if you joined,
02:43 -it's up to you. -The law says,
02:44 "If you bump into each other, it's up to you."
02:46 The Holy Spirit said,
02:48 "Can you imagine? It's a religious event, actually."
02:51 Attorney, the question is,
02:53 who is responsible for these kinds of disturbances?
02:56 What can they face in court?
02:58 Is it a drunk person who's the starter?
03:02 Or is it everyone who's involved?
03:05 Of course, it's everyone.
03:06 As long as they're following the law.
03:09 So, in a way, if we find out who's guilty,
03:11 of course, they'll be punished
03:13 for the crimes we mentioned.
03:14 If it's a simple alarmist scandal,
03:16 for example,
03:17 a minor arrest for a month in prison,
03:20 but a possible fine of P40,000.
03:23 But if the public disturbance is serious,
03:26 a major arrest, medium,
03:27 to prison correctional minimum,
03:29 or prison for two months and one day
03:31 up to two years and five months.
03:33 And a fine that's not more than P200,000.
03:38 -But if... -It's a big fine.
03:39 If it's more than P200,000,
03:41 -it's a big fine. -So don't do it.
03:43 It's not good to just go on and on about those activities.
03:47 Keep it solemn.
03:48 -Yeah. -Of course.
03:49 Because it's a religious activity.
03:51 -Attorney Gabby, thank you very much. -Thank you very much.
03:53 And happy fiesta to everyone.
03:55 Happy fiesta.
03:56 Pit, senor. Viva!
