What is Jurisdiction in US v Fowler Case about?

A Filipino seaman stabbed and killed a Singaporean seaman aboard a Panamanian-registered ship sailing in the South China Sea. When the ship arrived in a Philippine port, the Filipino assailant was turned over to Philippine authorities. However, the court would not have jurisdiction over the crime since it occurred outside of Philippine territory aboard a non-Philippine registered vessel in international waters.
