During the entire passage, he was unchained, no Spaniard laid a hand on him, and had many opportunities to escape but refused to do so.
Upon arrival, Rizal was incarcerated in Fort Santiago , a fortress used by Spanish authorities to detain political prisoners.
While imprisoned in Fort Santiago, he issued a manifesto disavowing the current revolution in its present state and declaring that the education of Filipinos and their achievement of a national identity were prerequisites to freedom. José Rizal's manifesto was written on December 15, 1896, known as "Manifesto a Algunos Filipinos" (Manifesto to Certain Filipinos).

"Manifesto a Algunos Filipinos" (Manifesto to Certain Filipinos). Rizal explicitly condemned the violent uprising of the Katipunan , the secret revolutionary society led by Andres Bonifacio. He argued that the revolution was premature and lacked the necessary preparation and education among the masses.
"I condemn this absurd and savage insurrection planned behind my back, which dishonors us Filipinos and discredits those who could speak for us."
"Manifesto a Algunos Filipinos" (Manifesto to Certain Filipinos). Rizal reiterated his belief that genuine and lasting change could only be achieved through peaceful means. He urged his countrymen to focus on education and moral development as the foundation for national progress.
"Manifesto a Algunos Filipinos" (Manifesto to Certain Filipinos). Rizal appealed to the Spanish authorities to implement the necessary reforms to address the grievances of the Filipino people. He hoped that by addressing these issues, further bloodshed could be avoided and a more harmonious relationship between Spain and the Philippines could be established.
"My countrymen, I have given proofs as to what I have sought and what I still seek, the liberties of the Philippines by means of education, by means of labor, by means of steady and peaceful reforms, by means of good and just administration, without cleaving the country and without scandalizing it."
Jose Rizal was imprisoned for 56 days, from November 3 to December 29, 1896.
The trial of José Rizal began on December 26, 1896 , before a Spanish military tribunal. The statue of Rizal's trial at the Rizal Shrine in Fort Santiago
