(Eagle News) – Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II said an immigration lookout bulletin order (ILBO) had already been issued against 20 consultants of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines.
The ILBO or lookout order was issued after the termination of the Joint Agreement on Security and Immunity Guarantee (JASIG).
Aguirre has alreadu issued the memorandum order regarding this to Immigration Chief Jaime Morente and Prosecutor General Victor Sepulveda after a Cabinet meeting in Malacañang Tuesday.
The Department of Justice lookout order covered the following NDF consultants:
1. Tirso Lagoras Alcantara
2. Ma. Concepcion Araneta Bocala
3. Pedro Heyrona Codaste
4. Renante Macatangay Gamara
5. Alan Valera Jazmines
6. Ernesto Epino Lorenzo
7. Ma. Loida Tuzo Magpatoc
8. Alfredo Amparo Mapano
9. Ruben Abenir Saluta
10. Adelberto Albayulde Silva
11. Benito Enriquez Tiamzon
12. Wilma Austria Tiamzon
13. Ariel Mancao Arbitrario
14. Renato Maranga Baleros Sr.
15. Kennedy Lao-ing Bangibang
16. Jaime Servillano Doria Soledad
17. Rafael Baylosis
18. Alex Birondo
19. Winona Birondo
20. Porferio Dianco Tuna
The order is meant to bar the NDF consultants from leaving the country. Most if not all of them are reportedly back in the country after the supposedly successful third round of the peace talks in Rome.
Many of them are facing criminal charges in various courts, while some have already been detained. President Rodrigo Duterte earlier sought their release so they could join the peace negotiations with the government panel in Oslo and later in Rome.
There is supposed to be a continuation of talks in April, but this was cancelled following the President’s directive to scrap the peace talks.
The decision came about after the New People’s Army rebels admitted to have conducted more than 20 operations against the military and government tropps, even those conducting peace and development work in the communities. These had led to killings, where at least three had been brutally killed, their bodies riddled with 76 bullet wounds.
“Ayaw ko nang makipag-usap sa kanila,” said Duterte over the weekend, feeling that the communists were not negotiating in good faith with the government.
The communist leaders, however, fear that the President was being fed allegedly wrong information that led him to cancel the peace talks.
They said they were willing to address the concerns on the violations of the ceasefire in the next round of talks.
