Mijalovski Pando

Pando Mijalovski was born in the village of Rudari, Prespa region, in 1919. At the time of the German occupation he worked actively in EPON and later in the ELAS reserve in his village. After the Varkiza agreement he worked with the same youthful passion. In the monarcho-fascist army where he was mobilized, he worked toward the ideals of EPON and CPG. In the company he performed responsible party work. Finally he was discovered and put before a military court in Janina. He was sentenced to death and in 1946 he was executed. Before they shot him he stood before the executing squad and called - "You are killing me but you cannot kill the whole population. Long live CPG! I am dying for a free homeland."
