The has reiterated that a psychological evaluation is not necessary to prove that psychological violence was committed under Republic Act No. 9262, or the ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ช-๐˜๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ ๐˜ˆ๐˜จ๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ž๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ณ ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ (๐˜๐˜ˆ๐˜ž๐˜Š) ๐˜ˆ๐˜ค๐˜ต.

In a Decision penned by Associate Justice Henri Jean Paul B. Inting, the Courtโ€™s Third Division affirmed the conviction of an accused for psychological violence against his wife and children, sentencing him to up 8 years in prison and PHP 275,000 in fines and damages. The SC also directed him to undergo mandatory psychological counseling or psychiatric treatment.

The SC emphasized that a psychological evaluation from an expert witness is not necessary to prove that the victim suffered. It is not a requirement under the law. The SC ruled that a victimโ€™s testimony in court is enough to prove emotional anguish or mental suffering.

Here, the wife testified in detail her experience proving her mental and emotional anguish. Her husband had an extramarital relationship, left her and their children, and cohabited with another woman in a house right beside their own home, in full view of their children. The accused even flaunted his affair on social media.

Hindi kailangan ang psychological evaluation para patunayan ang psychological violence sa ilalim ng Republic Act No. 9262 o ang ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ช-๐˜๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ ๐˜ˆ๐˜จ๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ž๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ณ ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ (๐˜๐˜ˆ๐˜ž๐˜Š) ๐˜ˆ๐˜ค๐˜ต.

Ito ang iginiit ng sa Desisyon na isinulat ni Associate Justice Henri Jean Paul B. Inting kung saan pinagtibay ng Third Division ng Korte ang hatol sa akusado para sa psychological violence laban sa kanyang asawa at mga anak.

Pinatawan ng Korte ang akusado ng hanggang walong taong pagkakakulong at pinagbabayad ng PHP 275,000 na multa at danyos. Inatasan din siya na sumailalim sa mandatory psychological counseling o psychiatric treatment.

Ikinasal ang akusado at ang kanyang asawa noong 1998 at nagkaroon sila ng tatlong anak. Nagkaroon din siya ng anak sa ibang babae na itinira niya sa bahay mismo ng kanyang ina, na katabi lang ng kanilang bahay. Hindi rin sya nagbigay ng pinansyal na tulong.

Sinabi ng Korte Suprema na kumpleto ang lahat ng elemento ng krimen ng psychological violence sa ilalim ng Section 5(i) ng ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ช-๐˜๐˜ˆ๐˜ž๐˜Š ๐˜ˆ๐˜ค๐˜ต: (1) ang biktima ay isang babae at/o kanyang anak; (2) ang biktima ay asawa ng o may relasyon sa nagkasala; (3) ang nagkasala ay nagdudulot sa biktima ng mental o emosyonal na paghihirap; at (4) ang paghihirap ay dulot ng pampublikong pangungutya o kahihiyan, pasalita at emosyonal na pang-aabuso, pagtanggi ng suportang pinansyal, o mga katulad na gawain.

Binigyang-diin ng Korte na hindi kailangan ng psychological evaluation mula sa isang ekspertong testigo para patunayan na nagdusa ang biktima. Hindi ito kinakailangan sa ilalim ng batas. Nagpasya ang Korte na ang testimonya ng isang biktima sa husgado ay sapat na para patunayan ang emosyonal na paghihirap o pagdurusa sa isip.

Sa kasong ito, detalyadong pinatotohanan ng asawa ang kanyang karanasan na nagpapatunay sa kanyang mental at emosyonal na paghihirap.
