From the Philippine News Agency (Oct 27): Zambo Sur poultry farm burned by NPA
rebels
New People’s Army rebels have torched two poultry farm buildings after the owner
failed to accede to their demand payment of revolutionary taxes in the province
of Zamboanga del Sur, officials disclosed Saturday.
Army’s 1st Infantry Division spokesman Capt. Alberto Caber said the incident
took place around 12:30 a.m. Friday in Barangay Dalaon, Molave, Zamboanga del
Sur.
Investigation showed that seven NPA rebels, including an amazon, barged into
the compound of the poultry owned by Onyx Go and herded the workers into one
corner, Caber said.
Some of the NPA rebels frisked and confiscated the mobile phones of the
workers while the rest of them started pouring gasoline into the two buildings
and set it ablaze, Caber added.
The NPAs, who were clad in bonnet masks, fled and later called Go through a
mobile phone to inform the businessman of the incident, he said.
The NPAs also warned Go to heed their demands so that his poultry farm will
be spared from further attack, he added.... The attackers were reported to belong to the NPA’s Western Mindanao Regional
Party Committee operating here in the region.
