PERALTA, J.
In robbery with homicide, civil indemnity and moral damages in the amount of P50,000.00 each is granted automatically in the absence of any qualifying aggravating circumstances.[69] These awards are mandatory without need of allegation and evidence other than the death of the victim owing to the fact of the commission of the crime.[70] In this case, the RTC, as affirmed by the CA, properly awarded the amount of P50,000.00 as civil indemnity.

VELASCO JR., J.
To be held guilty as a co-principal by reason of conspiracy, the accused must be shown to have performed an overt act in pursuance or furtherance of the complicity--mere presence when the transaction was made does not necessarily lead to an inference of concurrence with the criminal design to commit the crime.[132] Moreover, the same degree of proof necessary to prove the crime is required to support a finding of criminal conspiracy.[133]
