NPA rebel surrenders in Hinoba-an

From Panay News (Dec 27, 2022): NPA rebel surrenders in Hinoba-an (By DOMINIQUE GABRIEL G. BAÑAGA)



BACOLOD City – A New People’s Army (NPA) rebel based in the southern part of Negros Occidental surrendered to the Hinoba-an Municipal Police Station on Dec. 23.

The Hinoba-an police identified the now-former rebel as 22-year-old Jordan “Ka Bonbon” Asuncion, a resident of the town’s Barangay Culipapa and a former member of the NPA’s Southwest Negros Guerilla Front Platoon 3 Squad 2.


According to the Hinoba-an police, Asuncion heeded the call of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) to surrender and avail himself of the government’s program for former rebels.

Asuncion, meanwhile, has a pending warrant of arrest for attempted murder issued by Judge Rodney Magbanua of the Kabankalan City Regional Trial Court, dated Feb. 28, 2022, with a bail of P120,000.

Hinoba-an police said he can still avail himself of the promised aid for rebel returnees as soon as he has cleared up the charges against him.
