00:00 Did you see this, Kapuso? It didn't go up but it fell.
00:03 An old man was crossing in Tayuman, Manila.
00:07 The old man was on a motorcycle with a dash cam.
00:11 The old man was crossing.
00:13 Oh!
00:17 -Oh, the old man fell. -Delayed reaction.
00:20 The rider was shocked when he said, "This is on record."
00:24 "The incident is on video."
00:26 The old man was on a bike.
00:29 He suddenly stood up.
00:30 What does the law say about the "Bangga Budol"?
00:35 That's what we'll talk about this morning with our Kapuso in Law,
00:39 Attorney Gabby Concepcion. Good morning!
00:41 Good morning to you, Ivan. Good morning!
00:44 I hope you won't get "budol" this coming week.
00:47 You saw the video, right?
00:49 According to the police attorneys, many people are doing this mode to kill motorists.
00:54 What does the law say about this type of scam?
00:58 Well, this "Bangga Budol" mode is really something.
01:01 -That's bad acting. -There are so many bad acting.
01:04 But many people are still doing "budol".
01:06 It's good that there's a dash cam so that there's evidence.
01:09 Otherwise, this will be a case of "He said, they said".
01:14 Because there are so many people who are trying to do it.
01:18 There are so many witnesses in the group of the old man.
01:22 So, there are many possible witnesses in the scam that didn't really happen.
01:27 So, this mode will happen frequently.
01:29 So, it's important to be aware.
01:31 There's also what's called "Talakbo, Taho, Lako, Bundol".
01:37 -Like those who are stealing, right? -Yes.
01:39 And what they'll do is they'll pay you the supposed cost of the stolen stolen goods.
01:46 So, this is their purpose.
01:50 They're forcing you to pay otherwise, you'll report to the police.
01:58 At that point, I would think that this crime is a crime of extortion or blackmail.
02:06 Or coercion under the revised penal code.
02:09 Simply put, this racket is forcing you to pay.
02:13 Otherwise, you'll report to the police for something you didn't do.
02:18 Or you'll be afraid because you might get arrested or be beaten up.
02:22 If you don't have a dashcam like in this case,
02:25 you'll probably just give it to the police instead of reporting to the police or being beaten up.
02:30 So, there are people who say that this is a catch-all term for all kinds of scam.
02:37 Especially if the scam will result in you losing money or you'll get damaged.
02:44 But if it reaches the point where there's a demand for money,
02:48 this is the crossover that's not just a scam or a scam,
02:52 but it becomes a blackmail or extortion case under the revised penal code.
02:58 In this case, the rider was almost caught.
03:01 -Thank God, he said he has a video. -Yes, that's right.
03:04 If something happens to the rider, what will he do?
03:07 Well, at the end of the day, the case is still a case for physical injuries.
03:11 Whether it's for serious injuries, less serious, or slight physical injuries.
03:16 That's if we'll know who all participated in this robbery.
03:21 Usually, because there's CCTV or dashcams nowadays,
03:24 it's easy to find out who all committed the crime.
03:28 But if this is just a spontaneous ramble,
03:31 meaning that there are a lot of people involved,
03:33 there's an actual crime in Article 252 of the revised penal code
03:36 that's called "Physical injuries in a tumultuous affray."
03:41 -Here we go again with the tumultuous affray. -Is Ms. Sue here?
03:44 -I'm so affray. -Yes, right?
03:46 So this is the crime of rambling involving more than four people
03:50 and someone got hurt, and we don't know who really hurt the victim.
03:55 So all those involved who seem to be injured,
03:58 the victim will be charged.
04:00 Of course, the penalty is lower than the direct physical injuries.
04:04 So this is what we can say about cases like this.
04:07 First of all, those who are rambling because someone got hurt and they're being protected,
04:12 we're repeatedly saying that it's better if you call the police
04:17 instead of taking the law into your own hands
04:19 because you might be making a mistake
04:22 and you might bump into an innocent person and you'll be the one to answer.
04:26 Second, it's really okay to have a dashcam
04:29 so that there's evidence of cases where people were fooled while on the street
04:33 because there are so many cases like this.
04:36 And this is our purpose here.
04:39 Above all, be aware of the many cases like this.
04:42 It pays to know so that you won't be too afraid if this happens to you.
04:48 -Attorney Gabby, thank you very much. -Thank you very much.
04:51 -Have a great week ahead. -Have a great week and keep safe.
