From the Philippine Information Agency (Jun 4, 2021): Three IPs surrender firearms to Kiblawan authorities (By Carina Cayon)
DAVAO CITY, June 3 (PIA) – Three members of the Blaan tribe in Kiblawan town, Davao del Sur, have surrendered to authorities on Tuesday (June 1) along with loose firearms.
The surrenderees, who were allegedly involved in the “pangayaw” or tribal wars in the past, voluntarily submitted themselves to Kiblawan Mayor Carl Jason Rama and to Kiblawan PNP Chief PMaj. Rodante Varona.
They handed over two (2) homemade shotguns and M1 Garand rifle with two (2) live ammos to Varona.
Rama extended cash assistance in exchange for the surrendered firearms and to support the needs of their families.
The surrenderees promised to the mayor not to get involved again in the “pangayaw” or in any other illegal activities, and that they will instead help in the peace and order activities in their barangays.
The loose firearms were brought to the police station for proper disposition.
Varona urged those who want surrender to coordinate with the police and provide their information through the PNP hotline number 0907-6436448. (PIA-XI, Carina L. Cayon/PNP Kiblawan)
