From Tempo (Nov 1): Rebel returnee abducted, killed
DAVAO CITY – A former member of the New People’s Army (NPA), who recently decided to return to the folds of the law, was gunned down by unidentified armed men last Tuesday in Barangay Dalagdag, Calinan here.
Captain Ernest Carolina, 10th Infantry Division information officer, said Arnel Recta, a rebel returnee, and his wife were in their farm in Barangay Callawa, Buhangin District here, last October 24 when armed men abducted them.
Captain Carolina said some witnesses saw the couple forcibly taken by armed men believed to be NPA rebels.
Since then, the couple had been missing until Recta’s body with bullet wounds was recovered by authorities on October 28. The whereabouts of his wife was not yet determined as of this writing.
Recta, a resident of Purok 14 in Barangay Callawa, surrendered to the elements of 69th Infantry Battalion in April of this year.
