4ID bids to find the alleged missing farmers in Surigao

CAMP EVANGELISTA Cagayan de Oro City - 4th Infantry Division is willing to extend assistance to investigate the alleged missing farmers in Barangay Mahaba, Surigao del Sur.

Major Noli P Kanashiro, Spokesperson of 4ID, PA said that the Army will work and cooperate with their respective families in the search of Agustino Ladera and Renato Deliguer both farmers of Marihatag.

“If we find those two farmers, we will immediately bring them back to their homes”, said Lt. Col Rene Canete, Commanding Officer of the 36th Infantry Battalion, PA.

Meanwhile, related incident occurred when the elements of 36IB and Philippine National Police (PNP) of Tandag apprehended Julie Cuares and Arnel Laurente who revealed to be members of the New People’s Army (NPA) during the conduct of combined operation at Barangay Mabua, Tandag, Surigao del Sur last 10 September 2010.

“Cuares and Laurente were apprehended because of their suspicious movement in the area” said Lt. Col Canete.

The said rebels were brought to Tandag Police station for questioning and later released because of no pending warrant of arrest. 

According to Cuares and Laurente they choose to stay at the headquarters of 36IB rather than going back to their respective homes because they are afraid to be repressed by their former comrades. 

Major Kanashiro downplaying the serious allegation of the two missing persons (Ladera and Deliguer) adding that it was deliberately planned by the local terrorist to exploit the issue and be used as the highlight during the farmer’s day celebration on 04 October 2010 at the capitol ground of Surigao del Sur to entice support from the farmers. 

Despite of that the 4ID leadership is open for investigation and reassure cooperation since the alleged incident occurred within the area of responsibility. (4th Infantry (Diamond) Division, Philippine Army/PIA-Caraga)
