Three more high-powered guns surrendered

From the Philippine News Agency (Jan 21): Three more high-powered guns surrendered

CAMP MELCHOR DELA CRUZ, Gamu, Isabela -- Members of the Cordillera People's Liberation Army (CPLA) recently surrendered three more high-powered firearms to the Army and police officials at the military camp here. The latest batch of surrendered guns came two weeks after other CPLA members gave up 70 more high-powered firearms and 58 guns.

The newly surrendered guns were a 1-GPMG M-60 machine gun with body marking "Fabrique Nationale Herstal Belgique" and two M-16 Armalite rifles. These were accepted by Brig. Gen. Arnulfo Marcos, assistant division commander, and Police Senior Supt. Franklin Moises Mabanag, Isabela police director, from CPLA members Domingo Dalog of Tinglayan, Clever Dalog of Tabuk City and Obar Liab of Tinglayan, Kalinga.

A day before the newest surrenders of guns, fifty-one sons and daughters of CPLA rebels were integrated anew aside from the initially admitted 58 CPLA integrees two weeks ago.
