Mati remains on alert for NPA attack

From the Sun Star-Davao (Apr 10): Mati remains on alert for NPA attack

THE POLICE and military in Mati City remained on high alert to thwart an attempt by the New People's Army rebels to rescue their jailed comrade.

The Army's 10th Infantry Division spokesman, Lt. Vergel Lacambra, said there is "very high probability" that the rebels will try to spring Prince Wendell Olofernes from the Mati police’s detention cell.

Olofernes was among the 80 rebels who took part in the February 15 assault on the Mati police station.

He is the commander of the Sentro De Grabidad (SDG) Guerrilla Front 18.

The military said Olofernes assumed command of the unit following the arrest of its leader Jordan Donillo last December.
