Question 10
14. Armed with a search warrant, police officers searched the house of A for firearms
and ammunitions in his presence and in the presence of two barangay officials. One
of the police officers found a black basin containing some clothes in A’s bedroom.
When the clothes were removed from the basin, a .38 caliber revolver and six pieces
of live ammunition were discovered. Based on this, A was charged with illegal
possession of firearms and ammunitions. Before arraignment, he assailed the validity
of the search warrant for alleged lack of any records indicating that the judge
conducted searching questions and answers for the purpose of determining probable
cause. The prosecution nonetheless invoked the presumption of regularity in the
performance of official duty. Decide with reason(s).
