The NDF-FSMR condemns the abduction of Romeo “Ging-ging” Rivera perpetrated by the intelligence agents and operatives of 10th Infantry Division of the Philippine Army.

This ruthless doing is AFP’s desperate act to obviously retaliate the military defeats recently suffered by the fascist troops in FarSouth Mindanao such as the raid of Matan-ao Police Station and the ambush of 39th IB troopers in Asbang, Matan-ao, Davao del Sur carried out by the NPA Guerilla Front 72 in March 10.

The AFP was deliberately lying and devious about the abduction of an alleged New People’s Army leader in Tampakan, South Cotabato. The AFP has falsely identified Rivera as Felix Armodia or Ka Jing of NPA Guerilla Front 72.

Romeo Rivera is a peasant residing at Purok Lower San Juan, Bry. San Roque, Tampakan, South Cotabato, and actively involved in anti-large scale mining campaigns in their locality. He is co-convenor of Tampakan Panalipdan, an alliance against Glencore-Xstrata-SMI’s gold-copper project. Around 1 o’clock in the afternoon of May 2, Rivera was blindfolded, handcuffed, and beaten by 20 AFP agents before he was forcibly taken to an undetermined place. On May 3, he was surfaced and presented to the public as Felix Armodia aka Jing.

The abduction of Romeo Rivera also proves the recklessness and incompetence of the AFP. The imperceptive intelligence and arresting units led by Capt. Anthony Albuera of the 39th IB were obviously prompted by greed for hefty intelligence budgets, rank promotions and incentives such as reward money.

Ging-ging Rivera is only one of the countless civilians persecuted under Noynoy Aquino’s anti-people and terroristic Oplan Bayanihan. Certainly, the pointless efforts of the reactionary US-Aquino regime to suppress the people’s struggle could only lead to its isolation and downfall.
