From the Sun Star-Tacloban (Oct 4, 2021): 3 rebels yield in Samar
THREE former members of the New People’s Army (NPA) have surrendered in Gandara, Samar following their desire to live a normal life, a top police official in the province said.“This continuous act of surrender of NPA supporters is a clear indicator of their unwillingness to continue with the armed struggle,” said Colonel Peter Limbauan, director of Samar Police Provincial Office (SPPO).
The former rebels were identified as alias Mike, 27; alias Aira, 32; and alias Rex, 24.
They voluntarily surrendered to the personnel of Gandara Municipal Police Station on October 29 and 31, 2021.
According to SPPO, the surrenderers have undergone initial interviews and documentation at the Provincial Intelligence Unit.
In a statement, Limbauan lauded the decision of the three former rebels.
He also urged the others “to choose the path of peace.”
“We call on them to put their arms down, surrender and rejoin the society,” the police official said.
