Five New People’s Army (NPA) rebels have surrendered amid
pressure by ongoing military and police operations in the province of Zamboanga del
Sur , an official announced Thursday.
Maj. Felimon Tan, Western Mindanao Command (Westmincom)
information officer, said the NPA rebels surrendered on Wednesday to Lt. Col.
Alvin Luzon, Army’s 53rd Infantry Battalion (IB) commander.
Tan did not release the identities of the NPA-surrenderees
who surrendered to Luzon at Camp
Sabido , which houses the
53rd IB headquarters in Guipos, Zamboanga del Sur.
Tan said the NPA rebels decided to surrender amid pressure
by intensified law enforcement operation and dwindling mass support.
Tan said Luzon gladly
welcome the NPA rebels who decided to surrender to be able to live a new life
in the main stream of the society.
