From the Manila Bulletin (Jul 6, 2019): Isabela PENRO employee killed
CAMP MARCELO A ADDURU, Tuguegarao City – A member of the Provincial Environment Regional Office (PENRO)-Isabela Environment Protection Task Force was found dead inside the task force office in Ilagan City, Isabela Friday.
The victim was identified as Celso Asuncion , 58, and a member of the Isabela Environment Protection Task Force.
Investigators suspect that the perpetrators of the crime belonged to an “agaw armas (weapon snatching)” syndicate may have been responsible for the killing of Asuncion.
They said the same group, which is reportedly composed of New People’s Army (NPA) rebels, also accosted five police officers on Friday.
Philippine National Police PNP Region 2 (PRO 2) Director Brig. Gen. Jose Mario Espino has directed Isabela police to alert all its stations to conduct checkpoints for the possible apprehension of the suspects.
“The attack against the members of PNP Isabela and the killing of PENRO Employee is a manifestation of the NPA’s crooked principle and ideologies which are contrary of what they are trying to portray to the public as champion of social justice,” Espino said.
Accosted by the group were PCpl Gaudencio Castillo Jr and PCpl Earl Brian Gannaban , both assigned at Cauayan City PS; PSSg Fernando Capillian assigned the at Cordon Police S; and PMSg Julius Baribad and PCPL Bryan Q Balisi of Divilacan PS.
