Philippine election body dismisses petition to bar Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jnr from presidential election

• Case was based on Marcos’ failure to file income tax returns while governor of Ilocos Norte, but Comelec rules this was ‘not a crime of moral turpitude’
• This is the second petition against Marcos to be thrown out. Five more are pending, one of them claiming he is an impostor and the real Bongbong died years ago
