The (SC) has ruled that security guards cannot be held criminally liable for illegal possession of a firearm if they reasonably believe that the firearm issued by their agency is licensed.

In a Decision written by Associate Justice Ricardo R. Rosario, the SC’s First Division acquitted a security guard charged with unlawful possession of a firearm under Republic Act No. (RA) 10591 or the 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘍𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘈𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘨𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘈𝘤𝘵.

The case stemmed from the arrest of a security guard by a police officer who saw him carrying a firearm issued by his security agency. The police officer noticed that the guard was not wearing his prescribed uniform and asked for the firearm’s license. When the guard failed to present one, he was arrested.

While both the trial court and the Court of Appeals found the accused guilty of unlawful possession of fi****ms and ammunition, the SC reversed the conviction.

It ruled that under the 1983 𝘐𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘙𝘶𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘙𝘦𝘨𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 (𝘐𝘙𝘙) 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘋 𝘕𝘰. 1866, private security agency guards can carry fi****ms on work premises so long as authorized by a Duty Detail Order (DDO). The 2018 𝘙𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘐𝘙𝘙 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘈 10591 confirms that the DDO serves as the authority for security personnel to carry their issued firearm within the assigned location and period.

The issuance of a DDO assumes the presence of a valid license for the fi****ms listed in the order.
