MANILA — More petitions for disqualification are expected to be filed against several candidates of the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections this week, the Commission on Elections said Monday.
Currently, out of the more than 40 complaints lodged with the Committee on Kontra Bigay, formal petitions for disqualification have been filed against 5 candidates, all of which, Laudiangco said are strong cases. They would have 5 days to file their answer, after which the assigned Comelec Division may decide on the case.
