Outraged by the killing of a member of the Civilian Armed
Force Geographical Unit, whose death was claimed by the New People's Army, more
than 600 individuals staged a protest in Cauayan town Saturday to call for
justice and condemn the brutal killing.
The killing of CAFGU member Romualdo “Nene” Dollente in
Cauayan on November 30 was claimed by the NPA Armando Sumayang Command.
The indignation rally is also a call for vigilance against
lawless elements that threaten the peace and security of the community, Lt.
Col. Harold Anthony Pascua, 79th Infantry Battalion commander, said.
Pascua lamented what he called deceitful tactics of the NPA,
as Dollente was mercilessly killed in a non-combat mode and clad in civilian
clothes.
He vowed to relentlessly pursue the perpetrators, so that
justice be served to the family of Dollente who dedicated his life for
democracy.
Dollente left behind his wife, Aidalyn, and six siblings.
Rebel spokesperson Andrea Guerrero justified killings not
only of Dollente but also ex-CAFGU member Rene Villar, Jojo Grande and Jose
Siplao, who used to be NPA members, claiming that they were either involved in
illegal activities, and or were military informants.
