Specific examples of slander that can lead to imprisonment

[Starmix]

It is crucial for someone involved in slander, he or she may be part of the mitigation process. It is the responsibility of your mouth to shut it when a rumor is spread that could be considered slanderous to one's reputation. Everyone needs to stay away from a group of people who have nothing in mind but to take advantage of someone's reputation, who may not have done anything wrong against them.

The following are specific examples considered as slander:

• False statements that harm another person’s reputation;
• Defaming a woman’s chastity;
• Criticizing the president;
• Spreading false information as a journalist;
• Extortion;
• Seditious libel;
• Intentional libel, and
• Defamatory libel.

It is always important to remember that even where criminal penalties exist, they are infrequently applied due to freedom of speech protections. Foremost, it is always important to remind oneself to mind your own business to avoid paying moral damages or landing in prison.

Yeah, that is right, someone accusing a person of slander and having no support or evidence will land in prison. Let alone the defamation libel. My friend slandered someone, and she was ordered by the court to pay moral damages to the woman she slandered in the amount of one million pesos and 10 years in prison.
