Two Rebels Killed in Catigbian, Bohol
« on: November 26, 2007, 03:41:31 PM »
Published by the Bohol Chronicle in 2004
Reported by Ric Obedencio and Danny Reyes

Two members of the New People's Army were killed during a 45-minute gunbattle with government troops in Sitio Ipo, Barangay Bigtik in Catigbian town about 3 p.m. Friday.

The rebels, led by Kumander Domingo Samuya alias Ka Minggoy or Ka Jake, numbering to about 40 were chanced upon by troopers of the 17th Special Forces Company under Capt. Dennis Cuaresma.

The armed clash resulted to the evacuation of some 116 families, comprising 528 residents.

Intelligence reports revealed suspicion that the rebels were about to hold a conference in the secluded sitio when they were spotted by the government troops.

The slain rebels were among those assigned to guard the area. Their bodies were recovered during clearing operations conducted by elements of the 6th Special Forces under Col. Abundio Cases based in Bilar town.

Senior Police Officer 3 Modesto Renoblas, Catigbian PNP station commander, told the Chronicle that the suspected leader of the rebels is a resident of Catigbian, a brother of a chief tanod working under Catigbian Mayor Aurelio Dinorog.

The slain rebels, identities still unknown, were in their middle 20s, with height measuring 5'2" and 5'6".

After five days, if no claimants will come, they will be buried, Dinorog said.

BETTER INTELLIGENCE

The military is on the upper hand of the drive against insurgency after a much improved support of the civilians, according to Col. Juanito P. Gomez, commanding officer of the 302nd infantry battalion.

He said that it was the fourth encounter during the first quarter of the year, an indication that rebel operations can easily be aborted by the military.

Working under Col. Gomez are the 15th IB, 6th Special Forces, engineering battalion and the scout rangers.

EVACUATION AND FEAR

In a separate interview, Triple Union barangay chair Cresencio Lupian, 50, confirmed that some 40 families evacuated to the barangay hall and St. Vincent Chapel. The barangay about seven kilometers from the town proper, has 216 households.

After the pulong-pulong conducted by the Special Forces, the residents were allowed to go back home.

Residents of puroks 1 and 3 evacuated due to proximity to the encounter site.

Daguing said that some 68 households took shelter at the barangay hall after the first volley of gunshots.

The barangay chair said that burst of gunfire prompted him to suspend a session with the barangay council. He immediately called his tanods to urge residents of sitio Ipo to evacuate to nearby elementary schools.

Fear still gripped Teodora Batestes, 45, a resident of Liboron; and Ciriaca Tortor, 54, of Triple Union when both were interviewed by the Chronicle yesterday. Tortor expressed relief when she was allowed to go back with her husband Nicolas Tortor, 55, and their only child Richard, 19.

RELIEF GOODS

The evacuees will be provided with foodstuff during their stay at the barangay halls.

Dinorog and his archrival in politics, Bert Salinas, sent sacks of rice and canned goods for the evacuees.

The mayor mobilized the municipal health office personnel to attend to the health needs of the evacuees while the provincial Social Welfare Office led by Constancia Tuñacao delivered goods yesterday.

Liboron and Triple Union as well as nearby barangay Bagtic are recipients of the provincial government's poverty reduction program initiated by the Bohol Poverty Reduction Management Office under the governor's office.

i'm not sure if the rebels will be wipe out immediately. I think these people are addicted. They feel they have power in what they call their beliefs for the benefit for all. I'm not really sure about that.
However, if the government and these people will be able to find the best way to comprehend, settled and compromise, then Peace will surely be possible.

Yes B:) ..i think rebels are not easily been wipe out...The insoluble and ever worsening economic and political crisis of the ruling system provides fertile ground for the growth and advance of the Party and all other revolutionary forces. ANd these people are not just being addicted..considering that they are directly carrying guns and anytime they loose thier lives during the battle.So as long  as the ruling system in the Philippines remains semicolonial and semifeudal, they believed taht there is the urgent need for the new-democratic revolution and there is the fertile ground for the growth in strength and advance of the armed revolutionary movement of the people.  And the  theory of Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought guides the Communist Party of the Philippines and the Filipino people in the struggle to achieve the new-democratic and socialist stages of the Philippine revolution.
