Under RA 10883, otherwise known as the New Anti -Carnapping Act, the length of
imprisonment imposed on a person found guilty of carnapping has been increased
20 to 30 years of jail sentence, as compared to the jail term of 14 years and eight
months to 17 years and four months under the old law.
When the crime is committed with violence, intimidation or use of force, the
imprisonment sentence is for 30 years and one day to 40 years. If the owner, driver,
occupant of the carnapped motor vehicle was killed or raped, the person found
guilty would be sentenced to life imprisonment. Meanwhile, any person involved in
the concealment of the crime of carnapping would be imprisoned from six to 12
years and fined with the acquisition cost of the motor vehicle, engine or any other
part involved in the violation.
