Capiznon soldier killed in clash with Reds

From Panay News (Nov 10, 2020): Capiznon soldier killed in clash with Reds (By Glenda Tayona)


Corporal Arjun Guillermo of Mambusao, Capiz died of a gunshot on the chest during an encounter with some 10 armed men in Guihulngan City, Negros Oriental.

A soldier from this town was killed in action in Barangay Sandayao, Guihulngan City, Negros Oriental Wednesday last week.

Corporal Arjun Guillermo was a resident of Barangay Pangpang Sur here. A member of the Philippine Army’s 62nd Infantry Battalion (IB), he was assigned to Negros Oriental.

He died of a gunshot on the chest during an encounter with some 10 armed men.


The men were believed to be members of the New People’s Army.

There were two clashes that day in Guihulngan – one started at 5 p.m. and the other just two hours after the first.

Guillermo was hit in the second encounter. Because of the bad weather condition, it was already dark when government troops pulled Guillermo’s body out of the encounter site.
