A Test of Philippine Cybercrime Law?
« on: October 12, 2012, 04:51:57 AM »
By Perfecto Raymundo

The Department of Justice is looking for a solution to the first complaint filed for alleged violation of the Cybercrime Law.

The DOJ received the complaint on Oct. 3 via email from a 17-year-old female who said she was a victim of cyberpornography that has gone viral on the internet for years.

The victim was only 15 years old when the video was taken.

DOJ Secretary Leila De Lima Wednesday said the DOJ will study whether there are other laws that can cover the first complaint filed under Republic Act No. 10175, or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.

Its implementation was stopped by the Supreme Court Tuesday.

The SC issued the 120-day temporary restraining order restraining the respondents from implementing the Cybercrime Law.

De Lima said there are other laws that can be pursued to prosecute those behind the proliferation in the cyberspace of a sex video of a 17-year-old woman.

One of these laws, De Lima said, is Republic Act 9995, or the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act.

However, De Lima admitted they cannot stop the other victims under the Cybercrime Law from filing their respective complaint even if there is a TRO.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
