CamSur Massacre Leaves 6 Dead and 1 Wounded

Military authorities are in the hot trail for a band of communist rebels who are currently engaged in criminal activities.

“The involvement of some NPA rebels in various crimes is not new to us. Last year, a band of communist rebels shot dead an operator of Sunwest corporation in a robbery-hold-up incident in Guinobatan town in Albay. Due to the lack of popular support, the communist rebels are now heavily engaged in banditry,” said Major Harold M Cabunoc, Spokesperson of the 9th Infantry Division.

Major General Ruperto Pabustan, the Commander of the 9th Infantry Division, has condemned the gruesome massacre of innocent civilians by suspected communist rebels. He has directed the 902nd Brigade to assist the PNP in its investigation to identify the perpetrators and file criminal cases against them.
