A couple, both members of the New People's Army’s Front Committee 27, returned to the folds of the law Friday afternoon in Nabunturan,
They were identified as Henry Longkayas and wife Analiza, residents of Panoraon, Maco, also in
Through the initiatives of barangay officials in Libasan, the two surrendered to Captain Jan Ferido, company commander of the Alpha Company of the 72nd Infantry Battalion.
Hardships and deception were cited by the couple as the main reasons for their surrender.
They added missing their two-year-old son whom they abandoned just to join the underground movement.
Ferido turned over the couple to Lt. Col. Michael Logico, commander of the 66th Infantry Battalion.
Logico said “the constant pressure applied by our troops slowly sapped away their morale. The successful encounter last week was probably their decision point."
