From the Mindanao Examiner (Jul 29): 4 suspected NPA rebels arrested in Davao City
A communist rebel commander and three of his followers were arrested by security forces in Davao City in southern Philippines, the military announced on Wednesday.
Army Captain Alberto Caber, a spokesman for the Eastern Mindanao Command, said soldiers and policemen nabbed New People’s Army rebel leader Christopher Rollon and Alexander Bartolome, Rannie Ninal, and Mike Capito along McArthur Highway in Calinan village on July 28.
Caber said security forces also recovered a .45-caliber pistol, two fragmentation grenades, 10 cell phones and assorted batteries, including two blasting caps and materials used in the manufacture of improvised explosives.
He said Rollon’s group was allegedly planning to carry out bombings in Davao City.
There was no immediate statement from the NPA, which has been fighting for a separate state in the country.
