Luis Jalandoni, former chairman of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP), has died at the age of 90 in Utrecht, Netherlands, the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) confirmed.
Jalandoni passed away surrounded by family and comrades, according to the CPP statement on June 7.
Before the end of President Duterte’s administration in 2022, Jalandoni was designated as a terrorist by the Anti-Terrorism Council under the Anti-Terrorism Act.
This designation allows authorities to freeze assets without a court conviction.
Jalandoni was a close aide to CPP founding chairman Jose Maria “Joma” Sison, who also died in Utrecht.
