Bodies of 2 communists exhumed in Camarines

From Tempo (Dec 6): Bodies of 2 communists exhumed in Camarines

The bodies of two New People’s Army rebels who died in an encounter were exhumed by the Philippine Army and the Philippine National Police at the boundary of Barangay Daguit, Labo and Barangay Tamisan, Jose Panganiban in Camarines Norte last Friday.

Col. Ferozaldo T. Regencia, officer-in-charge of the 49th Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army, said an NPA returnee identified the bodies as that of “Ka James” and “Ka Omar.” They were exhumed at around 10 p.m.

Regencia said they were buried by their comrades after they were killed in an encounter with the Army in Sitio Namukanan, Barangay Daguit, Labo, last October 31.

Authorities were led to the grave site by the rebel returnee.

Major Marcial M. Lumanga, executive officer of the 49th IB, has coordinated with the PNP Scene-of-the-Crime Operatives for the proper identification of the bodies.
