CALLEJO, SR., J. |

| In this case, the petitioner asserts that contrary to the findings of the trial court and the Court of Appeals, he proved that he acted in complete self-defense when he stabbed Rafol. Rones raised a hand that held a bolo and Rafol was armed with a knife. They had a confederate in the person of Romano. He was alone against three adversaries, two of whom were armed with lethal weapons, so he stabbed Rafol to defend himself. Rafol kicked him on the eyebrow and as a consequence, he suffered disgrace and humiliation. The petitioner contends that Rafol's act of kicking him without justifiable cause can be considered as an unlawful aggression, citing the ruling of this Court in People v. Sabio.[7] | |||||
