All of us dreamed to have a perfect family. A perfect family where you can live together, support and look for each other. But nowadays, as we can see in our community many families are ruined. Because of this two (2) crime: Adultery and Concubinage. Looking for another partner and being not contented to your current partner.
Adultery is committed by any legally married woman who shall have sexual intercourse with a man not her husband or legal spouse and by the man who has carnal knowledge of her knowing her to be married even if the marriage be subsequently declared void. For the wife, the medium period of penalty for the crime of adultery ranges from 2 years, 4 months and 1 day to 4 years and 2 months imprisonment. The maximum period ranges from 4 years, 2 months and 1 day to 6 years imprisonment. On the other hand, concubinage, as defined in Article 334 of the Revised Penal Code, is committed by “any married husband who shall keep a mistress in the conjugal dwelling, or shall have sexual intercourse, under scandalous circumstances, with a woman who is not his wife or legal spouse, or shall cohabit with her in any other place, shall be punished by prision correccional in its minimum and medium periods. For the husband, the penalty of prision correccional in its minimum period is from six months and one day of imprisonment. The medium period of penalty is from 2 years, 4 months and one day to 4 years and one day of imprisonment. There should also be some form of imprisonment or consequences for those acting in sexual affairs knowing an individual is married.
We should stop this before it's too late. Because from the bible, it said that " Thou shall not commit adultery." Respect and learn how to be contented.
