Arresto Menor

Hi, thanks much for this forum. I have a relative who was caught peeping into the bathroom where a married woman was bathing. This is the 2nd time he did it. He and his parents already talked to the woman and asked for apology but the woman wanted another talk with his husband present. My question is, what specific offense or crime did he commit and what is the possible penalty? Deeply appreciate any help. Thanks much!

Arresto Menor

"Nullum crimen nulla pena sine lege"
There is no crime if there is no law punishing it.

But that pervert's activities should be nipped at the bud now, lest he become bolder and move on sexual assaults.

His actions - although not constituting a criminal offense - have produced a cause of action for damages, prevention and other relief under the Civil Code.

Get a lawyer and make sure you comply with the condition precedent before going to court. Your lawyer would know.

Thanks for the reply. Read somewhere that it can fall under invasion of privacy. Do we have a specific law for such? I am assuming that they may want to ask for some amount of money as pay out. Heard she asked for 15k for a similar case in the past. In such case, how much do you think could be a fair one?

that's considered unjust vexation.
