Regarding reports of the death of Ka Gonyong (Pedro Codaste), NDFP peace consultant
January 27, 2022
We are still awaiting verification of the reported death of NDFP peace consultant Pedro Codaste (Ka Gonyong), supposedly in an armed encounter between the AFP and an NPA unit in Impasug-ong, Bukidnon last January 21.
Since 2017, Ka Gonyong has long sought safety and refuge in the guerrilla zones since Duterte one-sidedly terminated the NDFP-GRP peace negotiations and ordered a manhunt for consultants and other personnel of the NDFP to either imprison or kill them.
We will issue a statement as soon as we receive additional information.
