Question

Subject: Testimonial Evidence - Rule 130, C

A is charged with theft of a valuable item. During the trial, the prosecution presents B as a witness to testify that he saw A take the item from the scene of the crime. The defense raises an objection, asserting that B does not possess the qualifications to be a competent witness under Sections 21-24 of the Rules on Evidence. The defense argues that B is disqualified as a witness due to his mental condition.

Discuss the qualifications and disqualifications of witnesses under Sections 21-24 of the Rules on Evidence. Determine whether B is qualified to be a witness in this case, and provide reasons for your decision.

Note: Base your answers solely on the provisions of Sections 21-24 of the Rules on Evidence.
