Ferdinand Marcos Jr. could not be faulted for not fully paying his taxes and not filing his income tax returns on time, so ruled a division of the Comelec in dismissing a petition to block his candidacy. | dpazzibuganINQ /PDI

In ruling against the petition filed by Pudno nga Ilocano , a group of martial law survivors from the home province of the late dictator, the division also said the former senator’s failure to file income tax returns was not a crime of “moral turpitude,” one of the grounds to disqualify candidates for public office.

“Regardless of the fact that the non-filing of income tax return was done repeatedly by the respondent, there is still no tax evasion to speak of as no tax was actually intentionally evaded. The government was not defrauded,” it added.There were four petitions to disqualify Marcos from running and one to cancel his certificate of candidacy that were decided by the Comelec’s two divisions.

“It is now time for every peace-loving Filipino to work for a clean, honest, credible, and fair elections, and allow the people to speak, their voices heard and votes genuinely counted,” he said. ACT Teachers Rep. France Castro criticized the “turtle’s pace” by which the ruling was made just weeks before the elections and urged the en banc “to prove to the public its integrity and independence.”
