Police and military personnel arrested three suspected members of the communist New People’s Army (NPA) in separate operations in the Agusan del Norte towns of Magallanes and Buenavista, a police official said Thursday.
Capt. Dorothy Tumulak, Police Regional Office in Caraga (PRO-13) spokesperson, identified the suspects as Sherlita B. Perales, 62; Honey Grace C. Perales, 18; and Marnel G. Bahian, 25.
Tumulak said the three have standing warrants of arrest for various crimes.
“The joint operation was conducted by the personnel of Magallanes Municipal Police Station, Agusan del Norte Provincial Intelligence Unit, 1st and 2nd Agusan del Norte Provincial Mobile Force Companies, and the Philippine Army’s 23rd Infantry Battalion,” Tumulak said.
Sherlita, accused of illegal possession of explosives, and Honey Grace, charged with robbery in band, were apprehended separately in Barangay Caloc-an, Magallanes on Wednesday.
On the same day, authorities also arrested Bahian, who is facing arson charges, in an operation in Barangay Sangay, Buenavista.
Brig. Gen. Romeo Caramat Jr., PRO-13 director, said suspects are listed under the Philippine National Police's "Periodic Status Report in the CTG (Communist Terrorist Group) Priority Target List.”
Caramat said they are active members of Guerilla Front 4A of the NPA's Northeastern Mindanao Regional Committee.
“The law enforcement operations of the PNP against the CTG (Communist Terrorist Group) members with warrants of arrest are underway to ensure they can never sow violence in the communities,” Caramat said.
