New People's Army (NPA) rebels attacked the residence of the
incumbent village head at Barangay Osmena, Claveria, Masbate
on Saturday night.
A police report said the rebels also confiscated the
firearms of Barangay Captain Victor Ballesteros, 52 and married.
The report said that at about 7:30 p.m., around 20 armed
rebels arrived at Ballesteros’ house and immediately asked for his firearms
while his relatives and fellow villagers were watching.
The village official immediately showed where his guns were
kept.
The rebels carted away Ballesteros’ two shotguns marked SAM
with Serial Nos. SS0509076 and SS05090745, a .45-caliber pistol with Serial No.
MO7093109 and ammunition for these firearms.
After getting what they wanted, the communist insurgents
immediately retreated towards the mountainous portion of the village but warned
the residents not to tell authorities about the incident.
