This will serve as a warning to all individuals,who may engage in counter revolutionary activities, Magbuelas said.
On the other hand, remnants of the NPA were also tagged as suspects behind the death of a farmer who was shot dead in front of his wife, on April 20 in Brgy. Lagaan, Calatrava, Negros Occidental.
Initial police investigations indicated that the victim, a 54-year-old farmer, whose identity was withheld, and his wife, were cultivating their farm lot when the armed men arrived.
He succumbed to multiple gunshot injuries, according to the police.*
