Kalinaw News: 75IB seizes arms cache in Surigao del Sur

Posted to Kalinaw News Facebook Page (Jan 19, 2023): 75IB seizes arms cache in Surigao del Sur

The Army’s 75th Infantry "Marauder" Battalion (75IB) seized two high-powered firearms during focused-military operations in the vicinity of Sitio Andap, Brgy Mahaba, Marihatag, Surigao del Sur on January 18, 2023.

The seizure of the arms cache which contained two 7.62 AK47 rifles and five magazines with 69 live ammunition was made possible through the revelation and cooperation of a former rebel (FR) who surrendered to this unit. The FR’s cooperation showed his wholehearted support for the peace and development efforts of the government, total renunciation of the communist ideology, and desire for genuine peace.


LtCol Jelson D. Buyuccan, Commanding Officer of the 75IB, conveyed his gratitude to the FR and the troops for their dedication towards promoting lasting peace in Surigao del Sur. He also conveyed the government’s message to remaining members of the Communist Terrorist Group to lay down their arms and return to the fold of the law where they can avail of the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) and live a peaceful life together with their families.
