PEOPLE VS. CASTROCrim. Case No. CBU-71993, July 20, 2007Cebu City

Facts:On December 3, 2004, NBI agents conducted an entrapment operation at the Garwood Hotel. Agents Dagdag and Toledo, along with IJM operatives, posed as customers in a hotel room, while the two accused, Castro and Cuico, brought nine girls into the room.

One of the accused asked the agents to choose a girl as a sexual partner. Agent Dagdag chose a girl and handed over 1,500 pesos in marked bills dusted with fluorescent powder.

ARP IVY F. DAMAYO-FEROLINO1616


As soon as Dagdag handed over the money, he introduced himself as an NBI agent. Both accused were placed under arrest. The nine girls were placed in DSWD custody. One of the girls was 15 years old, as proven by birth certificate.



Questions:

Was there a valid warrantless arrest? Was there prostitution involved? What was the offense committed by Castro or Guico? Is a birth certificate sufficient to prove minority of the victim?



Decision:Castro and Cuico are found guilty beyond reasonable doubt of qualified trafficking.

They are both sentenced to life imprisonment and a fine of 3 million pesos.

Each accused must pay all nine victims 50,000 pesos in moral damages and 50,000 pesos in exemplary damages.



Holding:For a conviction of qualified trafficking in persons, only one of the trafficked persons needs to be a child; there is no need for all of the trafficked persons to be minors.

Age is established following the guidelines mentioned in People v. Pruna. (Birth certificates are best, followed by baptismal certificates and school record. A child can be presumed under a certain age only with the testimony of a credible family member when the alleged age is a large range below the legal cutoff date.

The exploitative act of prostitution is consummated by a mere transaction, scheme, or design; there is no need to show actual sexual intercourse.
