PETITION FOR BAIL

The Accused, through the undersigned counsel, and unto

this Honorable Court, respectfully files this Petition by
stating THAT:

1. Accused is currently detained at Digos City Jail for

the charge of Rape and has been behind bars since his
arrest on October 16, 2017;

2. No bail has been recommended for his temporary

release on the assumption that the evidence of guilt is
strong;

3. The prosecution's evidence of guilt against accused,

however, is weak as there is no direct evidence that will
point to the accused to have committed the charges against
him. The accused was not in possession of the alleged one
piece small heat sealed transparent plastic sachet of shabu
weighing 0.365 grams at the time of the apprehension of
the said illegal drugs;

4. The records will show that accused was malicious

implicated in the case through the information filed by CITY
PROSECUTORTRIZIA JANELLI B. PAULINO. A copy of
the saidinformation is herein attached as Annex “A” and the
same is made an integral part of this petition;

5. There is no other genuine physical or documentary

evidence to show that accused is guilty of the crimecharged;

6. The burden of showing that evidence of guilt is

strong is on the prosecution, and since this fact is not
satisfactorily shown, accused is entitled to bail as a matter
of right during the pendency of the criminal case.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, upon prior notice and hearing, it is most

respectfully prayed of this Honorable Court that Accused
JOHN LLYOD ADARNAbe allowed to post bail for his
temporary liberty pending trial of the criminal charge against
him.

Other just and equitable reliefs are likewise prayed for.

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, this 7th day of

December 2017, at the city of Digos, Davao del Sur.
