Question

After drinking heavily, Binoy, a Filipino seaman, stabbed to death Sio My, a Singaporean seaman, aboard M/V "Princess of the Pacific", an overseas vessel sailing in the South China Sea. The vessel, although Panamanian registered, is owned by Lucio Sy, a rich Filipino businessman. When M/V "Princess of the Pacific" reached the Philippine Port at Cebu City, the Captain turned over Binoy to Philippine authorities. An Information for homicide was filed against Binoy in the RTC of Cebu City. He moved to quash the Information for lack of jurisdiction. If you were the judge, will you grant the motion? Why?
