The National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP)
states the following regarding the January 27, 2013 incident at Barangay Puso,
La Castellana, Negros Occidental:
1.
The police and paramilitary (Barangay Tanod and
Barangay Peacekeeping Action Team – BPAT) are culpable for commandeering the
driver and truck and making the civilians their hostages. The Government of the
Philippines (GPH) civil and military officials are lying for claiming that even
the paramilitaries are civilian.
2.
The objective of the New People’s Army (NPA) unit
concerned was to make a checkpoint. It fired a warning shot because the truck
did not stop. Then, the police and paramilitary personnel fired at the NPA unit
in heavy volume. Thus, the NPA fired back.
3.
The NPA was able to capture highpowered rifles among
other firearms, proving that the principal passengers and the vehicle were a
legitimate target of the NPA. The GPH authorities are blatantly lying when in
effect they claim that the rifles of the GPH side were holstered and could not
have been fired. Among the firearms taken by the NPA unit were two M-16 rifles
and a submachine gun, serial numbers of which are 181540, 183397 and 45N3.
4.
No passenger was deliberately shot in the head after
being wounded or killed. This is a blatant lie of the GPH civil and military
officials for psywar effect.
5.
GPH and its military and police officials are the ones
culpable for war crimes for issuing highpowered rifles and other firearms to
paramilitaries, and allowing the police and paramilitaries to commandeer and
hostage civilians. The GPH should admit its crimes, apologize, and compensate
the civilians.
6.
The NDFP commends the NPA for offering humanitarian
assistance to the victims and their families, despite the culpability of the GPH
for the incident and for issuing firearms to the paramilitaries and allowing
the military and police to commandeer and hostage civilians.
7.
GPH President Aquino and the Office of the Presidential
Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP) are destroying the peace negotiations for
making false charges of war crimes and for acting like robots of the fascist
elements in the military and police.

Luis Jalandoni, a member of the CPP/NDF Utrecht mafia, tells a few lies of his own in an attempt to shift blame for the murder of civilians back on to the government. This statement is just another in a series of commie propaganda releases intended to blunt all the negative publicity the NPA has suffered as a result of the "La Castellana incident."
