    Violence and intimidation during the Batanes election

    The 1969 congressional election in Batanes was associated with allegations that motorcycle-riding armed supporters, commonly called the “Suzuki boys,” used intimidation to support a Marcos-aligned candidate. The controversy contributed to a Supreme Court decision in 1970 overturning the disputed result.
