March

[edit]
  • March 4 – Hotel Delfino in Tuguegarao, Cagayan is seized by suspended Cagayan governor Rodolfo Aguinaldo commanding his private army estimated at 300 men.[3] His suspension as governor in January 1990 and his subsequent indictment on charges of rebellion and murder were both related to his support for the Dec. 1-9, 1989 failed coup attempt against President Corazon Aquino.[4] Brig. Gen. Oscar Florendo, sent by Aquino to serve Aguinaldo with an arrest warrant,[5] was captured by Aguinaldo's men and later shot in the hotel, he died of his wounds.[6] Hours of standoff ensued until nearly 1,000 government troops[3] attacked the hotel to dislodge Aguinaldo's forces.[4] In this siege at least a dozen others were killed in or around the hotel.[6] Following the melee, Aguinaldo fled with about 90 fighters for mountains in the north.[7]

  • April 25 – Two U.P. Students, Ernesto "Cochise" Bernabe II and his girlfriend Anna Lourdes "Beebom" Castanos were abducted and killed in Pampanga. Their decomposing bodies are found on June 25–26.
