Atty. SALUBRE:
MISTER WITNESS, do you affirm that the contents of this Judicial Affidavit are true
and correct based on your personal knowledge and the document and evidence in
your possession?
A:
Yes sir.
Q:
You also mentioned you were able to secure copy of the CCTV footage in relation
to the shooting incident that happened on August 9, 2018 in Tanzang Luma as well
as the copy of the Katibayan issued by the Punong Barangay of Tanzang Luma 5. I
am showing to you a copy of the Katibayan, is this the document that you are
referring to?
A:
Yes sir. Eto po yun.
Q:
I am also showing to you a copy of the USB containing the CCTV footage, is this the

A:

Q:
And there is a signature appearing above the name DANNY DADO is this your

Atty. SALUBRE:
May we respectfully request Your Honor that the Judicial Affidavit of the WITNESS,

be marked as our Exhibit “S” Your Honor and the signature of the WITNESS be
bracketed and sub-marked as our Exhibit “R-1” Your Honor.
COURT:
Mark them.
Atty. SALUBRE:
Your Honor, to expedite the proceedings the footage with the time-lapsed as
mentioned in the Judicial Affidavit was also mentioned to dispense the showing of
the footage Your Honor.
COURT:
Atty. PRECIA will you be amenable to that? Or you can enter into stipulation, but
if you want to have that flask drive again presented I will allow that.
Atty. PRECIA:
As much as I want to stipulate Your Honor, I want to see the said flask drive Your
Honor.
COURT:
Atty. SALUBRE, Atty. PRECIA is not amenable to stipulate.
Atty. SALUBRE:
We can show the contents Your Honor, I have a computer here.
COURT:
Do you have it now?
Atty. SALUBRE:
Yes, Your Honor.
COURT:
Show it now. COURT personnel please assist the counsels.
Atty. SALUBRE:
For the record Your Honor, I am showing the flask drive containing the CCTV
footage, involving Shooting Incident in Tanzang Luma involving the accused
COURT:
Okay Present it now.
Atty. SALUBRE:
For the record Your Honor, I am showing to the defense counsel, footage of the
CCTV
Atty. PRECIA:
Yes Your Honor, admitted.
COURT:
Admitted by the defense.
Atty. SALUBRE:
Your Honor may we specifically put on record the particular incident where the
accused Hernando Jaro looking for the victim Jonathan DADO while doing physical
activity, he drew a gun from his sling bag and fire the gun towards the direction of
the deceased. It was recorded as can be gleaned in the video from 00:22 seconds
to 00:19 seconds.
COURT:
So it’s 1 minute and 13 seconds minus 3 seconds, that’s the duration?
Atty. SALUBRE:
Yes Your Honor
Atty. PRECIA:
We will not stipulate on that, we will only stipulate with regard to the pictures in
the CCTV footage . That’s all Your Honor.
COURT:
But Atty. PRECIA it covers frantically the same name that was mentioned by Atty.
SALUBRE because he was just trying to be specific with the duration.
Atty. PRECIA:
Yes, the duration Your Honor. However, he inserted a statement that the said
accused is searching for the victim here, where in fact..
COURT:
Ah yung kanina yun, yung unang manifestation nya. Yung sinearch nya tapos
nagpaputok ng baril sa direction ng private complainant. Yun ba yung hindi ka nag
i stipulate?
Atty. PRECIA:
Yes, Your Honor.
COURT:
So Atty. SALUBRE the only thing that Atty. PRECIA wants to admit is the fact that
whatever is the content of the flask drive is the one that happened during the date
of the incident. Yun lang ang willing nya I istipulate so we will limit on that because
that would be subject to the appreciation of the COURT because the COURT has a
copy of that CCTV also. So when the COURT watches the CCTV then that would be
subject to our appreciation.
ATTY SALUBRE :
Your Honor. We request to mark the flask drive and the Katibayan togethim with
the Judicial Affidavit of the WITNESS.
COURT:
Mark the same for the prosecution just make sure that we have a copy of the CCTV
footage.
CLERK OF COURT:
Your Honor, included in our record marked last October 29, 2018 the CCTV as
Exhibit “K”.
COURT:
Okay. You are done now Atty. SALUBRE?
Atty. SALUBRE:
Yes, Your Honor.
COURT:
Ready for cross Atty. PRECIA?
Atty. PRECIA:
We respectfully request for deferment of the cross Your Honor?
COURT:
Considering that it was only now that you were able to receive a copy of the Judicial
Affidavit of this WITNESS?
Atty. PRECIA:
Yes, Your Honor.
COURT:
You are now excused MISTER WITNESS. You can leave now. You will have to come
back on JULY 25, 2022, at 8:30 o’clock in the morning.
