ALLEGED New People’s Army rebels took two firearms when they ransacked a business establishment in Barangay Kulasi, Sumilao in Bukidnon on Wednesday morning.
According to the report of Sumilao Police Station, more or less 20 fully armed NPAs entered into the Chen and Yap Agriculture Development Incorporated (CYADI) Farm owned by Cecel Chen at around 4 a.m.
Reportedly, the rebels also took money from the company apart from the two shotguns from the security guards.
Capt. Joe Patrick Martinez, spokesperson of 4th Infantry Division, said that the owner has been receiving extortion demands from the NPA but he refused to give in.
Lt. Col. Peter Edwin R. Navarro, commander of 1st Special Forces Battalion, confirmed Martinez’s statement.
“They even demanded from the establishment to increase the wage of the workers, but eventually the rebels robbed the workers,” Navarro said.
Navarro further said that they will help the PNP in bringing the culprits to justice.
”We will not let them threaten the people who are peacefully living in our area,” he said.
