The Roselyn Pelle Command of the New People's Army yesterday dismissed as “concocted tales” military claims of continued infighting among its members in northern
Ka Cecil Estrella, spokesperson of the Roselyn Pelle Command, in a statement, said the black propaganda and psywar campaign indicated that the 3 rd Infantry Division is getting demoralized because of its failure to destroy the revolutionary movement in
The Philippine Army had claimed earlier that an NPA member died, and two others injured, in continued infighting among members of the rebel group in northern
Maj. Gen. Jose Mabanta, 3ID commander, said the harassment of a police outpost in Sitio Sampinit, Brgy. Libertad,
Estrella, however, said the 3ID tried to downgrade the successful NPA harassment operation against the 6 th RSPB detachment in Escalante, by claiming it was rebel infighting.
Estrella recalled similar black propaganda launched by the 62 nd Infantry Battalion and Col. Jonas Sumagaysay, then commander of the 303 rd Infantry Brigade.
The military had claimed that their informants within the NPA confirmed that an “alias Regan” and “alias Poldo”, who were accused of being a military spy and a traitor, engaged in a heated argument that led to the exchange of fire.
“Alias Poldo” died, while two others, identified only as Ben and Ringo, were injured, they further claimed.
They believed the harassment of the police outpost was just a cover-up of what the NPA did to “alias Poldo”, Mabanta said.
Estrella said the Roselyn Pelle Command condemns the lies and concocted tales being propagated by the Armed Forces and the Philippine National Police.
