    The document proposes legislation to criminalize necrophilia and impose penalties. It defines necrophilia as sexual acts with a corpse. Those found guilty would face penalties of reclusion temporal to reclusion perpetua and fines from 100,000 to 500,000 pesos. Harsher penalties are proposed if committed by multiple people or those responsible for the corpse.
