SC Imposes Imprisonment for Sale of Counterfeit Bills │

The Supreme Court has affirmed the penalty of imprisonment imposed on a person for illegal possession and use of false bank notes.

In a Decision penned by Associate Justice Jhosep Y. Lopez, the Supreme Court’s Second Division denied the petition for review on certiorari filed by Allan Gacasan (Gacasan) which challenged the rulings of the Court of Appeals (CA) and the Regional Trial Court (RTC) finding Gacasan guilty of violating Article 168 of the Revised Penal Code (RPC).

In a test-buy operation conducted in Bukidnon, Misamis Oriental, the Criminal Investigation Detection Group (CIDG) arrested Gacasan after the latter offered to sell counterfeit bills to a confidential CIDG agent. Gacasan was caught in possession of 100 pieces of counterfeit 1000-peso bills and 25 pieces of counterfeit 500-peso bills. The said bills were confirmed to be counterfeit upon examination by Atty. Andrew E. Asperin (Atty. Asperin) of the Currency Issue and Integrity Office of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.

The RTC convicted Gacasan for the crime of illegal possession and use of false treasury or bank notes under Article 168 of the RPC. The CA affirmed the conviction, prompting the present petition before the Court.
