2. Bruno installed a jumper cable. He was prosecuted under a
Makati ordinance penalizing such act. He moved for its dismissal on the ground that the jumper cable was within the territorial jurisdiction of Mandaluyong and not Makati.
The case was dismissed. The City of Mandaluyong thereafter
filed a case against him for theft under the Revised Penal Code (RCP). Is there double jeopardy? Explain.
3. Mrs. B supplies the Philippine National Police (PNP) with
uniforms every year. Last month, he and two (2) other officers of the PNP conspired to execute a "ghost purchase", covered by five (5) checks amounting to ₱200,000.00 each, or a total of ₱1,000,000.00.
An investigating committee within the PNP, which was
constituted to look into it, invited Mrs. B, among others, for an inquiry regarding the anomalous transaction. Mrs. B accepted the invitation but during the committee hearing, she stated that she will not answer any question unless she be provided with the assistance of a counsel. The PNP officials denied her request; hence, she no longer participated in the investigation.
Was the PNP’s denial of Mrs. B’s request violative of her right to counsel in the proceedings conducted before the PNP? Explain.
