  Jr., a friend of Estrada. President Arroyo

  to his 36.6, according to the unofficial count.

  Sayyaf while quelling a prison uprising in
  Manila. In all, 22 people, including 20 prisoners
  and two guards, die in the violence. A week after
  the operation, police arrest a suspected Islamic
  militant who they believe was planning a
  retaliatory bomb attack on Manila over Easter
  weekend. Members of the opposition call for the
  resignation of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo
  in June, after she admitted to calling an
  election official during 2004's presidential
  race. A taped phone conversation between Arroyo

  that she had tried to use her power to influence
  the outcome. The opposition filed an impeachment

  as political maneuvering to gain support and
  weaken the opposition. On June 24, President
  Arroyo announces the abolition of the death
  penalty. On June 26, opponents of President
  Arroyo filed a new impeachment complaint,
  alleging corruption and human rights abuses.
