BUTUAN CITY — The Police Regional Office-Caraga on Sunday disclosed that another New People’s Army member was nabbed by its operatives in Barangay Padiay, Sibagat, Agusan del Sur.
PRO-13 chief Brig. Gen. Romeo Caramat Jr. identified the insurgent as Rudolfo Dolera, believed to be a member of the Guerrilla Front 21, North Eastern Mindanao Regional Committee.
He is a resident of Barangay Los Angeles, Butuan City.
Dolera, the No. 3 most wanted in Agusan del Sur and a priority NPA target, has a standing arrest warrant for frustrated murder issued by the Regional Trial Court Branch 2 in Butuan.
The suspect is among the suspects in an encounter in July last year in Purok 7, Barangay Los Angeles where one cop was wounded.
Caramat commended operatives from the 1st Agusan del Sur Provincial Mobile Force Company, Sibagat Municipal Police Station, and Butuan City Police Station 4 for the arrest.
“By creating chaos, you will only reap the justice of the law,” Caramat said as he assured the residents in the region of PRO-13’s continued campaign to arrest lawless elements.
