    People v. Molleda

    The appellants were convicted of murder with aggravating circumstances and claimed the trial court erred in considering evidence from their illegal arrest without a warrant. However, the Supreme Court ruled the appellants' contention was incorrect because the police apprehended them while hiding pursuant to an alarm identifying them as the killers, and invited them for investigation on reasonable suspicion of involvement in the killing based on their discovery in hideouts, making the police actions not arbitrary detention but in performance of duty.

    PEOPLE V.

    MOLLEDA
    G. R. No. L-34248, November 21, 1978
    Facts:
    Appellants were convicted as principals in the crime of murder, qualified by taking advantage of
    superior strength and with the aggravating circumstance of deceit. They contend that the trial
    court erred in considering evidence comprising the fruits of an illegal arrest without a warrant.
    Issue:
    Is the contention of the appellants correct?
    Decision:
    No. Appellants were apprehended by the Anti-Hoodlum Unit of the Manila Police Department
    while in hiding, pursuant to an alarm flashed after they were identified and verified to be the
    perpetrators of the killing. Upon being discovered in their hideouts, they were invited by the
    Anti-Hoodlum Unit for investigation on well-grounded suspicions for their part in the killing.
    The police are not guilty of arbitrary detention since they acted in the performance of their duty.
