From the Visayan Daily Star (Jul 8, 2022): Ranking NPA amazon official nabbed, 3 other leaders killed in gunbattle (BY GILBERT P. BAYORAN)
Isabelle Necesario
A ranking New People’s Army amazon leader was captured by Army soldiers in Calatrava gun battle, while three of the four other rebels killed in Binalbagan, all on July 6, were also identified as occupying key positions in the Central Negros guerilla Front 2 unit of the Komiteng Rehiyonal Negros Cebu Bohol Siqujior, according to the Philippine Army.
Lt. Col. JJay Javines, 79th Infantry Battalion commander, reported yesterday said that Isabelle Necesario, with aliases of Maoline/Nads/Diane/Idel, the deputy secretary of Northern Negros Front (NNF), was captured following an encounter on Wednesday with Army soldiers in Sitio Banwa Minatay, Brgy. Marcelo, Calatrava.
The capture of Necesario also resulted in the confiscation of two rifle grenades, two caliber .38 revolvers with ammunition, a caliber .45 pistol with ammunition, eight cellular phones, four knapsacks containing five flash drives, three pocket wifi units, P3,740 in cash, assorted medicines, personal belongings, a hammock and subversive documents.
Necesario is the third ranking leader of the Northern Negros Front declared as dismantled by the 3rd Infantry Division, and neutralized by the 79th Infantry Battalion since August last year, with two others killed in separate encounters, including Kerima Tariman and Marilyn Badayos.
Javines said that the group of Necesario, believed to be remnants of NNF, were also encountered by 79IB troops on June 22 in the same barangay.
Necesario has a pending arrest warrant for homicide, according to the 303rd Infantry Brigade.
On the other hand, the four suspected rebels killed in an encounter also on July 6 in Brgy. Santol, Binalbagan, were identified yesterday by the 303rd Infantry Brigade as Roel Sagon, 30, of Brgy. Buenavista, Himamaylan City; Rowell Udtuhan, 40, of Brgy. San Antonio, also of Himamaylan City; Alden Rodriguez, 20, of Brgy. Bantolinao, Manjuyod, Negros Oriental, and Nika Ledesma, 25, of Cebu City.
Brig. Gen. Inocencio Pasaporte, 303rd Infantry Brigade commander, yesterday said that Ledesma, with aliases of Sarah, Jane and Chai served as the political officer of Squad 3, Sentro De Grabidad Platoon of Central Negros (Front2); Sagon, alias Berio, is squad leader of CN 2, with Udtuhan as his assistant, and Rodriguez as a squad member.
Pasaporte said they were deceptively recruited to an ideology they do not even understand.
He also said that the four slain rebels were among those who staged an ambush against PNP members in Binalbagan February this year, leading to injuries of three police personnel.
Recovered from the encounter site were two M-16 assault rifles, one equipped with M203 grenade launcher, an AK-47 assault rifle, M-14 assault rifle, a caliber .45 pistol, 17 magazines containing ammunition, five hammocks, five sling bags, three pairs of rain boots, and assorted personal belongings.
PLt. Col. Jay Malong, commander of the 1st Negros Occidental Provincial Mobile Force Company, also reported the apprehension of a certain Ka Ricky, 47, also on July 6 in Brgy. Calampisawan, Calatrava, by virtue of an arrest warrant for the crime of frustrated murder.
Ka Ricky, according to Malong, used to be a member of the Northern Negros Front.
