+ March 09, 2021 HOUSE Bill (HB) 7814, supposedly aimed at giving more teeth to the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act (Republic Act 9165), was approved by the Lower House on March 2, 2021. HB 7814, if it becomes a law, will remove in our statute the presumption of innocence of every person charged with an offense, as well as amend if not disregard the Bill of Rights enshrined in our Fundamental Law since the 1935 to the 1987 Constitution.
HB 7814 provides the legal presumption on who is considered an importer, financier, or protector of illegal drugs. This would mean that those accused of violation of RA 9165 will have to prove themselves innocent instead of the State proving their guilt beyond reasonable doubt, which is the current judicial norm. Well, state prosecutors would have an easy job in the future.
