From the Philippine Star (Jul 14): Captive soldier in safe condition
An official of the New People’s Army (NPA) claimed yesterday that the soldier they seized in Gingoog City in Misamis Oriental last Saturday is in safe condition.
NPA spokesman Allan Juanito said Pfc. Adonis Lupiba, 26, was treated for a bullet wound in the leg and is now in stable condition.
A trooper was killed and another was wounded when a band of NPA guerrillas shot the soldiers, who were playing basketball in Barangay Alagatan, Gingoog City, last Saturday.
Two civilians were wounded in the attack.
Juanito claimed Lupiba is a prisoner of war.
He assured Lupiba’s family that he would be released as soon as he gets better and vowed to issue updates about his health.
Juanito claimed they took two high-powered firearms and other military equipment from the soldiers.
