THE NEW People’s Army in Southern Mindanao is already processing the release of Governor Generoso Municipal Police Station head, Chief Insp. Arnold S. Ongachen, who was abducted last May 29.
Rigoberto Sanchez, spokesperson of NPA-SMR, said in a statement that Ongachen’s custodial unit has reported that preparations are underway for his safe and orderly release.
“Following the declaration of the unilateral ceasefire of the Central Committee of the CPP and the National Operations Command of the NPA and the reciprocation of the GPH of its own ceasefire, the custodial unit is nevertheless ready for any untoward event that may endanger Ongachen and the Red army’s safety,” Sanchez said.
He also said that Ongachen already admitted his guilt over his alleged drug links. He also allegedlly issued an apology to the public, President Duterte and the CPP-NPA-NDF.
Ongachen was abducted during the attack at the Governor Generoso Municipal Police Station last May 29. The attack resulted to wounding of PO3 Johnray Cinco.
The pending releases of Ongachen along with another prisoner of war PO1 Michael B. Grande were supposed to be a gesture of goodwill on the part of the revolutionary movement ahead of the peace talks.
“While we deem the recent release of the NDFP consultants a positive development, the remaining political prisoners all over the country should be released immediately and without condition by the Duterte government in compliance with the CARHRIHL.
These Red fighters, activists and civilians who were incarcerated on the ridiculous weight of trumped-up charges have suffered enough injustice under the fascist Arroyo and Aquino III regimes.”
