Fernando Manuel de Bustillo Bustamante y Rueda (1663 – 1719) was the 37th Governor-General of the Philippines from 1717 until his assassination.
Biography
During his tenure as Governor-General, several individuals with pending charges took church asylum in Manila. Bustamante asked the Archbishop of Manila, Francisco de la Cuesta, to hand over these individuals to the authorities or allow them to be taken, but he refused.[2] In response, Bustamante ordered that de la Cuesta and all his monks be rounded up and imprisoned, but this unfortunately sealed his fate, as many of the Archbishop's supporters later stormed the Governor-General's mansion and murdered him in the streets.[3]
Following Bustamante's assassination, he was succeeded as Governor-General by de la Cuesta himself.[2] Meanwhile, the Spanish officials in the Philippines began to suspect that the assassination had in fact been an elaborate plot by the Dutch East India Company, meant to keep Spain's influence in Southeast Asia in check.[3]
