	GR No. 189301 2010-12-15	PEOPLE v. JOSE PEPITO D. COMBATE VELASCO JR., J.
In addition to this, the Court likewise awards moral damages. In People v. Arizapa,[52] PhP 50,000 was awarded as moral damages without need of pleading or proving them, for in rape cases, it is recognized that the victim's injury is concomitant with and necessarily results from the odious crime of rape to warrant per se the award of moral damages.[53] Subsequently, the amount was increased to PhP 75,000 in People v. Soriano.[54]
