00:00We have witnessed many devotions and prayers to the Lord Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints throughout the years.
00:15But in the midst of the intense devotion and faith, devotees were still hurt.
00:22Two groups of devotees were also hurt.
00:26One of the men brought a rope to the precinct after being hit by some devotees.
00:36What does the law say about this?
00:39Ask me, ask Atty. Gabby.
00:43Atty. Anong, what does the law say about this case of chaos,
00:47especially in a huge event with so many people,
00:51just like the feast of the entire Jesus of Nazarene?
00:54Well, at the end of the day, the case of the injury is still a case of physical injuries,
01:00whether it is for serious or less serious, or slight physical injuries.
01:06But that is if we still know who participated in this chaos.
01:10It is better if there is a CCTV or a camera,
01:13it is easier to find out who committed the crime.
01:17But if this is a spontaneous chaos,
01:20where many are involved and it is not known who is really responsible,
01:25there is actually a crime in Article 252 of the Revised Penal Code
01:30that is called Physical Injuries in a Tumultuous Afray.
01:34It is hard to say that in Tagalog.
01:36But this is a crime in a chaos and someone was hurt,
01:40but it is not known who really hurt the victim.
01:44All those involved who seem to be hurt by the victim
01:47will be charged with a lower penalty than the case of physical injuries.
01:53If the injuries are not serious and it cannot be identified,
01:57all those who seem to have inflicted violence have a penalty of 5 to 15 days in prison.
02:03But if it is determined who did it,
02:06he will surely be charged for physical injuries.
02:10What is the pursuit of those who will be hurt as a result of the chaos?
02:15Well, Daniels can chase those who were hurt,
02:18who need hospitalization, medicine, and medical attention.
02:23But if they are not hurt,
02:25we will just let the authorities file the case
02:28and help the case if the witness needs it.
02:31If it is true, actually, we know the risks and dangers,
02:35especially in chaos and many people go to an event like a translation.
02:41So, actually, what we can do is to always keep cool.
02:45No one will get hurt in the heat of the moment.
