AFP
The leadership of New People’s Army (NPA) rebels continues to suffer a debacle
over the weekend with the capture of another top communist leader, together with
his wife in Cebu, the military said Sunday.
This brought to six the number of NPA rebels captured by the military the
past three days.
Maj. Gen. Jose Z. Mabanta Jr., commander of 3rd Infantry (Spearhead) Division
of the Philippine Army, confirmed to the Philippines News Agency the arrest of
Calixto Vistal, a top regional NPA commander in the Visayas, by military
operatives in Mandaue, Cebu last Friday.
Jimmyliza Badayos Vistal, wife of Calixto, was also arrested.... Military records show that Vistal, formerly led the NPA forces in Bohol,
currently heads the regional armed group in southeastern Negros island while
Jimmyliza was the former technical committee head of the same Negros group....
