    Nikki Mendoza
    Manolito Gonzales filed a petition for bail in his murder case. He argues that under Section 7 of Rule 114, bail can be granted for non-bailable offenses if evidence of guilt is not strong. The main prosecution witness stated in his sworn statement that he did not actually witness who shot the victim after multiple shots were fired by Gonzales and others. Therefore, Gonzales claims the evidence against him is not strong and requests the court set bail for his provisional liberty pending trial. A hearing on the petition is scheduled for a specified date and time.

    PETITION FOR BAIL

    Accused MANOLITO GONZALES, by himself and unto this


    Honorable Court, alleges:

    1. That accused was charged with the offense of Murder which is a


    non-bailable offense;

    2. Under Section 7 of Rule 114 of the 1997 Rules of Court, it states


    that:

    “No person charged with a capital offense, or


    an offense punishable by reclusion perpetua or life
    imprisonment, shall be admitted to bail when
    evidence of guilt is strong, regardless of the stage
    of the criminal prosecution xxx”.

    However, in the instant case the evidence against the


    accused is not strong.

    That prosecution witness Dante Ciruelas stated in his


    sworn statement that accused Manolito Gonzales fired an
    armalite to the victim, however, the said sworn statement
    likewise indicates the fact that he did not witness the said
    shooting incident as he was not able to know who shot the victim
    Ernesto Valasquez after Glen Gonzales fired his pistol to the
    victim. The pertinent portion of his sworn statement is hereunder
    quoted, to wit:

    " 09- T:Ilang beses binaril nitong si Glen Gonzales,


    Arnaldo Boy Mendoza, Manoling Gonzales
    at Ruperto de Villa itong si Ernesto
    Velasquez?

    S: Una po ang isang putok lamang si Glenn


    Gonzales na pagkatapos ay nagsunod-
    sunod na ang mga putok na hinde ko na
    po malaman."
    WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed of this Honorable Court
    that an order fixing the amount of bail for the provisional liberty of the
    accused be issued, and that said accused be set at liberty upon the
    filing of said bail.

    Such other reliefs, just and equitable under the premises are
    likewise prayed for.
