National Democratic Front is a coalition of far left leaning political parties, agricultural unions, trade unions, and other related groups in the Philippines. The front has controversial members, like the Communist Party of the Philippines, which has its own military wing, the New People's Army.

Jose Maria Sison may is liable under violations of articles 47, 48, 140, and 289, Dutch Penal Code but had not been arraigned on any charge.[2]On September 13, 2007, however, National Democratic Front chief peace negotiator Luis Jalandoni, confirmed that Sison’s lawyer Michiel Pestman said that: “It appears that the president of the chamber made the decision and called [Pestman] to say that there’s no extension.” [3]Malacanang's National Security Adviser Norberto Gonzales stated that it was surprised by the Dutch government’s decision to release Sison from jail.[4]
