NPA Medic surrendered to Caraga police
BUTUAN CITY -- A medic member of the New People’s Army (NPA) surrendered to authorities on May 5, 2022, due to the relentless efforts of Police Regional Office (PRO) 13 on the campaign against insurgency and terrorism.
PRO13
Director Police Brigadier General Romeo M Caramat Jr., disclosed that alias
‘Jovelyn’, 37 years old, and full-time Communist Terrorist Group (CTG) medic of
Weakened Guerilla Front 14, Sub-Regional Committee Southland, Northeastern
Mindanao Regional Committee surrendered to the personnel of 1303rd Maneuver
Company, Regional Mobile Force Battalion 13 in Bunawan, Agusan del Sur.
She
yielded her issued homemade caliber .357 revolver to the police.
“Alias
Jovelyn was one of the victims who reached the point of self-realization that
she gained nothing but undeserved struggle and suffering on the mountain while
at the hands of a terrorist group. To all the remaining members of the CTG,
there is hope for a better tomorrow if you choose to renounce armed struggle
and surrender to the government,” RD Caramat said.
Alias
‘Jovelyn’ is now under the custody of 1303rd Maneuver Company for proper
documentation and custodial debriefing. (PMaj Dorothy Tumulak, PIO, PNP
