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.
