Anti-Terrorism Council redesignates CPP-NPA as terror group

The Philippine Star

|

April 22, 2024

The Anti-Terrorism Council (ATC) has maintained the terrorist designations of the Communist Party of the Philippines New People's Army (CPP-NPA) as well as the Islamic State East Asia (ISEA) and other Daeshlinked groups and has tagged an individual linked to various activities of communist rebels as a terrorist.

The council's decisions are contained in separate resolutions issued last December but uploaded to the Official Gazette only last April 17.

Under the implementing rules and regulations of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020, the ATC shall conduct a review every three years to determine if the basis for designation as terrorist still exists.

Through Resolution 54 approved last Dec. 6, the council decided to keep the designation of the CPP-NPA.

"After careful review of the verified and validated information, sworn statements, and other pieces of evidence gathered by different Philippine law enforcement agencies, the ATC determined that the basis for designation still exists, this warranting the continued designation of the CPP-NPA," the resolution read.
