Posted to Kalinaw News (Sep 18, 2021): 2 Female CTG Members Surrender in Maco



Maco, Davao de Oro – The Balik-Loob Assistance Center in Brgy Malamudao, Maco, Davao de Oro received two (2) female members of the local Communist Terror Group on September 14, 2021.

On September 10 and 12 troops of the 1001st Infantry Brigade figured in armed skirmishes with local CTGs in Barangay Malamudao, Maco, Davao de Oro which led to the recovery of war paraphernalia and their hideout.

Dialogues with the local leaders and members of the community accompanied by focused military operations led to the surrender of Alyas Audrey, the CTGs Medical Staff and Alyas Jenefer, the CTGs Squad Supply Officer both of whom belong to the Regional Headquarters of the Southern Mindanao Regional Committee (RHQ-SMRC) led by Alyas Bok/Jonny/Jeck.

Alyas Audrey and Alyas Jenefer said they feared for their lives as the intense focused military operations in their area intensified and waited for an opportune time to make a run for their lives that led them to Barangay Malamudao’s Barangay Hall where Barangay Chairman, the Honorable Edgardo Reambonanza received them. The surrenderees were immediately turned over to the 1001st Brigade and their minor bruises were immediately attended to.

At the 1001st Brigade Alyas Audrey said she feared she would never see her three (3) children again. “Nagkurog ko sa kahadlok. Nahadlok ko na mamatay unya dili na nako makita akong mga anak” Alyas Audrey narrated. Alyas Jenelyn said the fear of being killed without seeing her siblings haunted her.

Brigadier General Jesus P Durante III assured the surrenderees of their safety and appealed to other members of CTGs to return to the fold of the law. “Surrender now while you still can and have time on your hands. I personally will guarantee your safety and the protection of your rights, however, I reiterate my firm stand for those who continue this armed struggle against the government, any member of the CTG who sows terror and disrupts the peace in Davao de Oro shall be met head on by the full force of the troops of the 1001st Brigade,” Durante said.
