JTFC Commander Maj. Gen. Diosdado C. Carreon commended the troops for their heroism and bravery during the clash with the communist group.
“The Joint Task Force Central and 6ID will never cease to hunt these CNTs. We will pursue them and bring them to the folds of the law and stop their oppressive actions which continuously hinder the progress that the LGUs in JTFC AO are implementing.” Maj. Gen. Carreon said.
He also encouraged the other CNT members to stop fighting the government and return to the fold of the law so they will not experience the same thing that happened to their comrades.
