Two suspected New

killing one policeman, were arrested on Monday by joint operatives of the
Philippine National Police and the 58th IB Philippines Army based
in Gingoog City .
Captain Joe

Army, identified the captured rebels as Danilo Lampusay (also known as
Dan-Dan) and Ejohn Lampusay. They were arrested Monday in Purok 2, Barangay
Minalwang, Claveria, Misamis Oriental.
According to
former rebel, the two were regular members of Sangay sa Partido Pampropaganda
3, Guerilla Front 4B, North Central Mindanao Regional Committee (SPP3, GF4B,
NCMRC) under Open Hangadon a.k.a Tingcas who led the recent attack at
Hindangon, Gingoog City CAA Patrol Base. He added that they had killed three
CAA members.
Major General
Oscar T Lactao, Commander of 4ID said, “While the two have been arrested, their
leader, who is the brain behind the attack, remains at large. This is the
consequence when you join the New People’s Army. There will be nobody, not even
your leaders, will come to your rescue. You are on your own to defend the
charges against you. Soon the long arm of the law will reach their leaders.
They have to face the crime they committed.”
