Capture and Surrender Cause CPP-NPA-NDF to Self-destruct
Camp Evangelista, CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY ──The
CPP-NPA-NDF is expected to self-destruct with the recent capture of
Benito and Wilma Tiamzon at Brgy Zaragoza, Aloguinsan, Cebu City and the
surrender of 72 NPA members to 4ID last 22 and 28 March, 2014,
respectively.
As the current CPP-NPA Chairman and the
Secretary General, Tiamzons’ arrest crippled the communist organization,
no one is directing the armed groups operation while their
centralized-type logistical management is also paralyzed since his wife
Wilma used to manage it.
MGEN Ricardo R Visaya AFP, Commander,
4ID said, “The current situation of the CNN is likened to a car without a
driver and without gasoline. These gains are proofs that they are
becoming weak and whenever they perceived that they are at the losing
end, they will again manifest their intention to negotiate and return to
the negotiating table.”
“We will continue accepting those who
would like to return to the folds of the law and be with their families.
While for those who insist on staying in the mountains, we will let
them rot there, like the dickens. It is now their choice whether they
want to live happily with their families or die miserably and
regrettably in the jungles. I have ordered our field units to continue
their operations without let-up,” MGEN Visaya added.
MGEN Visaya further said, “We will keep on informing the people particularly their supporters that they are supporting the terrorists, an organization that will destroy their dreams and aspirations. Likewise, big companies and professionals who are giving in to the demands of the NPAs should also stop providing aid to these terrorists. Under the spirit of Bayanihan we will continue converging our efforts with all stakeholders, after all, we are fighting a common enemy who hinders us from bringing peace and development to this part of Mindanao.”
