THE New People’s Army-Celso Minguez Command (NPA-CMC) that operates in Sorsogon has admitted that NPA guerrillas killed Noel Delgado in Barangay San Juan, Sorsogon City, on December 1.
NPA-CMC Spokesman Samuel Guerrero said Delgado was meted out the death penalty after he refused to mend his ways after being warned by the provincial rebel command several times.
Guerrero admitted that Delgado used to be an NPA guerrilla but he deserted his unit “and committed crimes against the revolutionary movement and the farmers in the Bacon District of Sorsogon City.”
He said that after being shot, Delgado was taken to a hospital in Sorsogon City but died on December 5.
“Since he quit from the movement, he became part of a bandit group that was involved in cattle rustling, the theft of other animals and the forcible eviction of some tenants in Bacon District,” Guerrero added.
“He had as his cohorts some ex-guerrillas, soldiers, policemen and members of the Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Unit. They misrepresent themselves as NPA as they commit crimes. Delgado and his gangmates also invoke the NPA’s name in extorting money from contractors undertaking infrastructure projects,” he said.
“The NPA is gunning after Delgado’s partners-in-crime. The revolutionary army will eliminate this gang in response to the complaints of the farmers that they had been abused,” Guerrero also said.
