00:00The happiness that should be for everyone has returned to the rock and the rock that has no song.
00:07Cotton Cam is the riot of young people in a concert in Taytay, Rizal.
00:12The groups of young people who came to the concert,
00:15cheered as they watched as it became the reason for the violence.
00:21Now, there are many gatherings, mapa free concert, meeting de avance, or even protest movements.
00:28What does the law say about the riots in this kind of gathering?
00:33Ask me, ask Cotton Cam.
00:41Attorney, what does the law say about this kind of event that caused a riot in an event or gathering?
00:47Who has the responsibility?
00:51The crime in a situation where a lot of people are in chaos,
00:54specifically, three or more, is what we can call under the law, tumult.
01:01T-U-M-U-L-T, that's our word for the day.
01:04A disturbance of the public order involving three or more, tumultuous.
01:10And this can be found in Article 153 of the Revised Criminal Code.
01:15This is a crime of people causing chaos in a public performance, function, or gathering.
01:21Disturbing the peace, in other words, involving a lot of people.
01:25What if there is an injury?
01:29Well, there will be additional cases of physical injuries,
01:33whether it is light, less serious, or serious physical injuries.
01:37But that is only if we know who joined this riot.
01:42It is good, like here, if there is a CCTV or a camera,
01:47it is easy to find out who committed the crime.
01:50But if this is a spontaneous riot involving a lot of people
01:55and you don't know who is really responsible for the injuries,
01:59you don't know who jumped, who was killed, if any.
02:04There is actually a crime in Article 252 of the Revised Criminal Code
02:08called Physical Injuries in a Tumultuous Affray.
02:13This is really a riot.
02:14This is a crime in a riot and there is an injury
02:17and you don't know who really injured the victim.
02:21All those involved who seem to be injured in the victim and in the riot can be charged,
02:27but the penalty is lower than the physical injuries themselves.
02:33Attorney, those attending who are involved in the riot, what is the charge?
02:38If you are among the injured and you know who is hurting you,
02:43of course, they are liable and this should be answered,
02:46whether you were hit by a punch or jumped,
02:50or those of you who were hit by a flying concrete barrier.
02:54The damage can be charged if you are injured and need hospital,
02:58medical and medical attendance, or if you were not able to enter the office.
03:02But if there is no damage,
03:04let the authorities file the case and help the case if the witness is needed.
03:10In major riots like this, there are also other things that can happen sometimes.
03:15Because of the large number of people,
03:17lack of supervision of the police or the bouncers or security guards
03:23to keep the peace and to keep people in place,
03:26or even worse, there was a stampede.
03:29Organizers of events or concerts may also be liable
03:34if they foresaw that many would come,
03:38that the event is very popular,
03:40but they were not prepared to handle it.
03:42They may be charged for negligence resulting in physical injuries or even death.
03:48So be careful when you go to large crowds of people,
03:53there may be a tumultuous afraid or a stampede.
03:57Organizers and venues should also be vigilant to provide adequate security
04:02to ensure that there are proper entrances or exits of people in case of an emergency.
04:08And to the parents,
04:10do not forget to give proper advice to our children before they go to such events.
04:17Remember, we will clarify the rules of the law for the peace of mind.
04:23Do not hesitate.
04:25Ask me, ask Katerina Gatot.
