PD 1602 - Illegal gambling tong its

hi i just wanted to consult about sa case ng kapatid ko, last saturday, naglalaro ng tong its yung kapatid ko tsaka dalawa niyang kaibigan, betting amount is 50 cents, laro laro lang nila pang palipas oras kasi hinihintay nila yung ate ng kaibigan niyang dumating galing work. tapos may napadaan na pulis na hindi naka uniform, sabi nila sa pulis "good evening noy". tapos yung dinakip na sila. nakuha sa kanila yung baraha, upuan, tsaka 2 pesos na money. kinasuhan sila ng illegal gambling.

i would like to ask if ano yung maging sanction ng ganyang kaso kasi as i have read in the internet 30 to 90 days yung pagkakulong pero sabi ng pulis 6 mos daw.

please help.

thank you.

unfortunately, the law is the law.

has he been released on bail? what i saw also on the revised penal code is that the punishment is 1-6 months, but that makes it possible to get probation

yes sir.he's been released from bail.thank you sir for your reply.
