    The accused Juanito Calixtro and six companions robbed the Rural Bank of San Luis. During the robbery, one of the robbers, Pio Cuevas, was killed. The issue was whether the appellants were guilty of robbery in band with homicide even though the deceased was one of the robbers. The court held the appellants were guilty, as Article 294(1) of the Revised Penal Code states that all participants in a robbery are criminally liable if a death results, regardless of whether the deceased was a participant or innocent party.
