Butuan City – The regional command of the Northeastern Mindanao Police Regional Office 13 (PRO 13) and Northeastern and Northern Mindanao 4th Infantry (Diamond) Division (4th ID) yesterday called on fighters of the New People’s Army (NPA), armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), to return to the fold of the law and avail the government’s peace and development program.
In a separate statement, the command group of PRO 13 and 4th ID assured that the NPAs who also wanted to yield their firearms will be given immediate cash assistance in exchange of their surrendered firearms in line with the government’s “Balik Baril Bayad Agad” program, aside from the livelihood support coming from the national and local government units.
