The Pudno Nga Ilokano (Ang Totoong Ilokano) on Monday filed a motion for reconsideration on the Commission on Elections' (Comelec) junking of its petition to disqualify presidential candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.
The Pudno Nga Ilokano on Monday filed a motion for reconsideration on the Commission on Elections' junking of its petition to disqualify presidential candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.the final disqualification case against Marcos for "lack of merit."
“Marcos Jr.’s repeated violation of the law is reflective of and constitutes an act of baseness in the duties which he owes his fellow Filipinos and his country,” they added. “What petitioners merely seek is to highlight that the accessory penalties of prison correctional under the RPC, particularly that of ‘perpetual special disqualification from the right of suffrage’ under the Article 73 of the RPC be given supplementary application in this case,” they pointed out.
The group earlier stressed that Marcos was convicted eight times by the Quezon City Regional Trial Court Branch 105 in 1995 for failure to file his income tax returns as governor of Ilocos Norte for taxable years 1982 to 1985 and for failure to pay the corresponding deficiency taxes.
