The Assassination of Former First Lady Aurora Quezon (1949)

PH Murder Stories

On April 28, 1949, a former first lady of the Philippines was traveling to her husband's hometown for the Quezon Memorial Hospital's inauguration in Baler.

Unfortunately, a group of armed men blocked the 13-vehicle convoy along a mountainous road in the province of Nueva Ecija.

A group of 100 to 200 perpetrators fired at a Buick sedan containing Aurora Quezon; her daughter, Baby; her son-in-law, Philip Buencamino, husband of Aurora's other daughter, Nini.

Before the scheduled trip, Aurora Quezon's trusted confidants already advised her that there is a threat of insurgency along the routes that her convoy will pass through. However, the former first lady shrugged off the risks.
