From ABS-CBN (Nov 23): 5 CAFGUs held captive by NPA freed
Five members of the Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Unit (CAFGU) have been released after almost a month of being held captive by the New People's Army (NPA).
The victims were abducted in Barangay Sabud, Loreto, Agusan del Sur last October 25.
They were freed in Sitio Cabiga-Biga, Barangay Datu Davao, Melale in Compostela Valley at around 2:30 p.m. on Friday.
Authorities said Josefina Bajade of the Provincial Peace Process in Agusan del Sur was the one who negotiated with the NPA rebels for the freedom of the victims.
They were identified as Lito Lope Andalique, newly-elected chairman of Barangay Sabud; barangay officials Marvin Bantuasan, Balaba Andalique and Reynaldo Teodos; and Pepe Subla, member of a civilian volunteer organization.
According to Andalique, they were treated well by their captors in their 28 days in captivity.
