CAMP PERALTA, Jamindan, Capiz – A top leader of the remnants of the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG) in Bohol, along with four comrades, was killed in an encounter with the combined forces of Bohol Police Provincial Office and Army’s 47th Infantry Battalion in Purok Matin-ao 2, Barangay Campagao, Bilar, Bohol on Friday, February 23, 2024.

The encounter erupted at about 6:52 in the morning during the launch of a Joint Enhanced Military Police Operation (JEMPO) by government forces against the group of Domingo Compoc, alias Silong, Squad Leader of the remnants of Bohol party Committee (BPC).

The firefight, lasting for more than two hours, resulted in the death of Compoc and four of his comrades identified as Parlito Segovia alias Aldrin, Assistant Squad Leader and Political Guide; Marlon Omosura alias Darwin, Squad Member; Hannah Joy Cesista alias Maya/Lean, and an individual known as alias Juaning, Squad Member.

Seized from the encounter site were the bodies of the deceased NPAs and six high and low-powered firearms, including one M653 assault rifle, one R4 assault rifle, one M16 rifle, and three Cal. .45 pistols.

Unfortunately, two PNP personnel were killed and wounded in action during the encounter.
According to military records, Compoc, a former Commanding Officer of Sandatahang Yunit Pangpropaganda (SYP) Platoon of BPC, has a P2.6 million bounty on his head. He is wanted for a string of criminal charges, including rebellion, homicide, attempted homicide, theft, multiple murder, frustrated murder, and robbery.

Compoc is also the father of Jingler alias Keth, who was killed in an encounter with government forces in Bilar in September 2023, along with Pasakaday Salugpungan Kalimudan (Pasaka/Confederation of Lumad Organization in Southern Mindanao Region Secretary General Kerlan Fanagel and four others.
The leadership of the 3rd Infantry (Spearhead) Division commended the 47IB and PNP counterparts for their successful Joint Enhanced Military Police Operation that resulted in the neutralization of Compoc and four of his comrades, bringing justice to all victims of crimes and violence perpetrated by the said group.

"The encounter in Bilar delivered a significant blow to the ranks of the CTG's recovery group in Bohol. Since the successful neutralization of the CTG's recovery team by government forces during the September 2023 encounter in Bohol, our relentless pursuit continues against their top leader, Domingo Compoc, and other remnants of the BPC. This commitment is driven by our goals to serve justice to the victims of crimes committed by Compoc's group and to ensure that any attempts by the CTG to regain influence in Bohol will not prosper, guaranteeing the safety of the province and its people," 3ID Commander Major General Marion R. Sison said.

As he extended condolences to the bereaved families of a PNP personnel and five communist-terrorists, MGen. Sison called on other remnants of the BPC to surrender peacefully.

“Stop attempting to regain your influence in Bohol to avoid misfortune. You will never succeed, as all sectors stand united in protecting the province. Come forward and return to your government and family, who genuinely care for your well-being,” he ended.
