Posted to Kalinaw News (Nov 2, 2020): 1 NPA Cadaver found Floating in the river of Quezon



MARAMAG, Bukidnon- A cadaver was found floating at Manoto River between Brgy Mahayag and Brgy Minongan of Quezon, Bukidnon last 27 October 2020.

The cadaver is male, between 30-40 years old with four (4) gunshot wounds and believed dead for about 15 days and already in the advance state of decomposition. Per Information gathered, it was found out that the said cadaver is a certain “ROGER”, a Team leader of Squad 2 of Platoon Bagsik of GF Malayag.

It can be recalled that a firefight occurred last October 14, 2020 around 4:30 in the afternoon between the troops of 88th Infantry “Maringal” Battalion and Guerilla Front Malayag of New People’s Army at the hinterland area of Sitio Trucut, Brgy Cawayan, Quezon, Bukidnon. Reports have reached this unit that an NPA member acquired gunshot wounds during the encounter and died later. The NPA group decided to leave the dead body in the river in fear of the pursuing government troops.

LTC Franklin F Fabic, Commanding Officer of 88IB said, “It is with sadness that another Filipino who was deceived by the deceptive ideals of the communist terrorist died in one of the encounters. This act of NPA illustrates ruthlessness leaving the dead body in the river. That’s why, I encourage the remaining NPA members to surrender now or you will be treated just like your comrade who was intentionally left behind.”

He added “We in the government side are willing to help you in any possible ways as long as you surrender peacefully. We want you to reunite with your families and have a peaceful life as the Christmas season is fast-approaching.”
