Biography

edit

He was born in Vitoria to a left-wing family which took part in the clandestine reorganization of the Álava branch of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party during the Francoist dictatorship.[5] José Antonio Aguiriano, who would also become a politician, was his older brother. He was a founding member of the Federación Universitaria Democrática Española [es], an underground students' union; this led to him being arrested and imprisoned in Bilbao. He was elected to the Senate in the 1977 election, and again in 1982. In 1986 he was elected to the Congress of Deputies, where he served until 2000. He died in Vitoria-Gasteiz on 23 June 2019.[1]
