From the Sun Star-Zamboanga (Nov 28): 12 NPA rebels surrender

TWELVE New People’s Army (NPA) rebels surrendered on November 26 in the towns of Kapai and Tagoloan, Lanao del Sur.

Lieutenant Colonel Jayson Jumawan, Army’s 82nd Infantry Battalion commander, said in a statement that the surrenderers also turned over a .30 Carbine rifle and a caliber 45 pistol.
He said they were part of the NPA’s organizing group. They have been placed under custodial debriefing to determine the extent of the group’s influence.
