	GR No. 149785 2004-04-28	PEOPLE v. HENRY JUSAYAN Y SUGUI QUISUMBING, J.
With respect to damages, the trial court ordered appellant to pay private complainant civil indemnity in the amount of P50,000 but did not order him to pay moral damages. Current jurisprudence mandates that appellant should pay private complainant, without need of further proof, the amount of P50,000 by way of moral damages.[33] To protect the young from sexual exploitation and abuse, exemplary damages in the amount of P25,000, should also be awarded.[34]
