The Nationalist People's Coalition (NPC) has officially notified Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo of her expulsion from the party.
The decision, signed by NPC chairman Vicente Sotto III on June 22, was implemented by NPC Secretary-General Mark Llandro Mendoza through a letter dated June 23.
Guo faces accusations of ties to illegal Philippine Offshore Gambling Operators (POGOs) and questions regarding her Filipino citizenship.
These controversies have put her integrity and adherence to the party's values into question.
Guo is also serving a six-month suspension ordered by the Ombudsman, which began on May 31.
She faces qualified human trafficking charges filed by the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission and the Philippine National Police-Criminal Investigation and Detection Group before the Department of Justice.
