‘Sparrow’ assassin kills IP rep in Bukidnon

From the Philippine News Agency (May 23): ‘Sparrow’ assassin kills IP rep in Bukidnon

The “Sparrow Unit,” the assassination team of the outlawed New People’s Army (NPA), killed a tribal representative to the City Council in Bukidnon.

A police report reaching here Monday said that Datu Benjamin “Otto” Omao, the mandatory representative of the Indigenous People’s (IP) on Malaybalay City’s legislative council, was killed inside the IP office in Malaybalay City last week.

In a statement, the NPA owned the killing.

Police said that the local law enforcers have waged a manhunt for the killers as the military conducts hot pursuit operations to bring the culprit to justice.

The NPA also owned the killing of a retired police officer in Gingoog City last week on allegation of land grabbing and the killing of tribal leaders in Misamis Oriental.
