Election-related incidents
[edit]In February 11, 2025, three people were arrested for trying to extort ₱90 million (US$1.83 million) from two municipal candidates in Enrile, Cagayan by claiming to be COMELEC-connected IT specialists who could rig the election results in their favor.[25] On February 28, COMELEC filed cybercrime charges against a vice-mayoral candidate in Reina Mercedes, Isabela, after he posted a video on social media appearing to demonstrate a method on how to tamper with the election results.[26]
On April 23, Joel Ruma, the reelectionist mayor of Rizal, Cagayan, was shot dead by a suspected sniper while campaigning, with three people injured in the same incident.[27] On April 26, a candidate for councilor in San Pablo, Isabela was shot and injured along with two companions in an ambush.[28]
