The leadership of Police Regional Office (PRO) 13 condemned the killing of a Police Executive Master Sergeant (PEMS or SPO4) by the members of the Communist Party of the Philippines- New People’s Army (CPP-NPA) Wednesday (May 22) in Brgy. Tagcatong, Carmen, Agusan del Norte.
“The entire police force condemned in the strongest manner the latest hostility launched by the CPP-NPA on PEMS Jimmer Omisol. This dastardly and barbaric act proved that there is no justice and rule of law in the armed struggle,” Brigadier General Gilberto Cruz, PRO13 director said.
Based on the investigation of Carmen Municipal Police Station, the victim had just arrived in Brgy. Tagcatong around 6:30 PM but when he went out of his car, three armed men tried to grab him.
“The rebels tried to kidnap our police officer but sensing he’s in danger, he was able to shot and hit his assailants as evidenced by the bloodstains at the waiting shed where the five NPA members serving as look-outs were waiting. Although outnumbered, the hero cop fought until his last breath,” BGen. Cruz added.
PRO13 also negated the claim of Ka Omar Ibarra, spokesperson of NPA in Agusan that the victim was involved in illegal activities and inhuman treatment of persons placed in the police detention facility of Carmen.
“He is known to be a humble and hardworking police officer. Even in his previous assignments, he did not have records of illegal activities. The statement of Ibarra is a fabricated story to justify the evil acts of his men,” the region’s police chief stressed out.
Meanwhile, the police and military are conducting joint operations to bring the terrorist-killers before the bar of justice.
