Chief Supt. Victor P. Deona, Bicol Regional Police Office director, has ordered all provincial, municipal and city police offices to be on full alert and undertake constant intelligence monitoring after gathered information revealed that New People’s Army (NPA) rebels are planning to attack anytime.
Members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) are also under the same orders from their superiors.
Deona said that based on their information, a group of rebels have been going around in far-flung villages in the region in the past few days and planning to stage ambuscades on military, police and Special Barangay Operation Team members as well as local police offices being manned by few personnel.
Related to this, Deona said all military Philippine National Police (PNP) personnel have been banned from going to cockfights due to information that communist dissidents are out to launch liquidation missions against AFP/PNP members who go to gamecock arenas especially during Saturdays and Sundays.
He said they also received information that NPA rebels have been trying to orient villagers and recruiting new members particularly from among the youth.
The AFP and PNP commands have already instructed their respective members to gather more intelligence information on rebel plans as to what offices would be the possible objects of attack.
Just recently, Deona said that NPA members attacked the Community Police Assistance Center 4 of the Legazpi City Police Office in Barangay Taysan at about 8:20 p.m. on May 16.
The village is just a few kilometers from the Oriental Hotel where the United Nations World Tourism Organization was holding a conference.
