    Criminal Law 1

    Quiz No. 1

    1. What court has jurisdiction when an Indonesian crew


    murders the Filipino captain on board a vessel of Russian
    registry while the vessel is anchored outside the breakwaters
    of the Manila bay? 2012

    2. Ms. M, a Malaysian visiting the Philippines, was about to


    depart for Hong Kong via an Indonesian-registered commercial
    vessel. While on board the vessel, which was still docked at
    the port of Manila, she saw her mortal enemy, Ms. A, an
    Australian citizen. Ms. A was seated at the front portion of the
    cabin and was busy using her laptop, with no idea whatsoever
    that Ms. M was likewise onboard the ship.

    Consumed by her anger towards Ms. A, Ms. M stealthily


    approached the Australian from behind, and then quickly
    stabbed her neck with a pocketknife, resulting in Ms. A’s
    immediate death. Operatives from the Philippines National
    Police-Maritime Command arrested Ms. M for the killing of Ms.
    A and thereafter, intended to charge her under the Revised
    Penal Code (RPC). Ms. M contended that the provisions of the
    Revised Penal Code cannot be applied and enforced against
    her because both she and the victim are not Filipino nationals
    and besides the alleged crime was committed in an
    Indonesian-registered vessel.

    Is Ms. M’s contention against the application of the


    Revised Penal Code against her tenable? Explain. 2019 BAR

    3. Sixteen year old Aliswan prodded Amethyst, his girlfriend,


    to remove her clothing while they were secretly together in her
    bedroom late one evening. Failing to get a positive response
    from her, he forcibly undressed her. Apprehensive about
    rousing the attention of the household who did not know of his
    presence inside her room, she resisted him with minimal
    strength, but she was really sobbing in a muffled manner. He
    then undressed himself while blocking-the door. Yet, the
    image of a hapless and sobbing Amethyst soon brought him to
    his senses, and impelled him to leave her room naked. He did
    not notice in his hurry that Amante, the father of Amethyst,
    who was then setting alone on a sofa in the sala, saw him
    leave his daughter’s room naked.

    Outside the house, the now-clothed Aliswan spotted


    Allesso, Amethyst’s former suitor. Knowing how Allesso had
    aggressively pursued Amethyst, Aliswan fatally stabbed
    ALleso. Aliswan immediately went into hiding afterwards.

    Upon learning from Amethyst about what Aliswan had


    done to her, an enraged Amante wanted to teach ALiswan a
    lesson he would never forget. Amante see out the next day to
    look for Aliswan in his school. There, Amante found a young
    man who looked very much like Aliswan. Amante immediately
    rushed and knocked the young man unconscious on the
    pavement and then draped his body with a prepared tarpaulin
    reading “RAPIST AKO HUWAG TULARAN”. Everyone else in
    the school was shocked upon witnessing what had just
    transpired, unable to believe that the timid and quiet Alisto-
    Aliswan’s identical brother, had committed rape.

    Answering the criminal complaint filed by Alisto, Amante


    contended that he had incurred no criminal liability for lack of
    criminal intent on his part, his intended victim being ALiswan,
    not Alisto. What is this defense of Amante, and explain if the
    same will prosper. 2017 BAR
