CAVINTI, Laguna – The joint law enforcement operation conducted by the PNP and AFP units in Rizal, resulted in the arrest of a CPP-NPA-NDF top leader and the Secretary of the Komiteng Sentrong Bayan-Rizal under the Sub-Regional Military Area (SRMA) 4A, Southern Tagalog Regional Party Committee (STRPC) at Brgy Mayamot, Antipolo, Rizal, today, December 23, 2022.
The arrested top-ranking CTG personality and Secretary of Komiteng Sentrong Bayan (KSB) of Rizal was identified as Melanie Reyes Sumayang, alias JAYA/HILDA/JUDAY, a Executive committee member of SRMA 4A, STRPC. The arrest was made by virtue of a standing Warrant of Arrest under Criminal Case Number 19- 4393 and 19- 4394 for the crimes of two (2) counts frustrated homicide issued by the Regional Trial Court, Fourth Judicial Region, Branch 64, Mauban, Quezon.
Sumayang, is the key staff of the CPP-NPA-NDF who is in charge of conducting Party Courses and other mass orientations to radicalize the youths, students and other vulnerable sectors such as the indigenous peoples, trade unions, urban poor and peasants thru lies and deceit thereby enticing them to join the communist terrorist group (CTG), particularly the New People’s Army. Due to numerous setbacks suffered in Rizal, the CTG in the region is bent on recruiting potential political and military cadres to support the recovery of Komiteng Probinsya (KOMPROB) Rizal under the Southern Tagalog Regional Party Committee (STRPC) and its subsequent expansion in the industrial and economic hubs of Cavite, Laguna and Central Quezon.
Brigadier General Cerilo C Balaoro Jr, Commander, 202nd Infantry Brigade, congratulated the government forces for the successful joint law enforcement operation. “We are on the right track in ending this decades-long insurgency. We will not let this terrorist group recruit members and recover their lost mass base here in CALABARZON. With the solid commitment of our security forces and the active support of the local government units, government line agencies and other stakeholders, we are positive that we can end this local communist armed conflict soon and achieve lasting peace and development in Southern Tagalog.”
The arrest of said alias JAYA/HILDA/JUDAY is a big blow to the CTG’s radicalization and recruitment effort preying on the different sectors, especially to the youth and students in various schools and universities in CALABARZON, alongside other marginalized sectors of the society. This will also expose the CTG’s deceptive scheme in their conduct of terroristic activities and its political works thru their front organizations.
It can be recalled that two (2) high-ranking CTG leaders were also arrested by joint AFP-PNP elements on May 31, 2022 at Greenwood Heights, Subdivision, Brgy Paliparan 1, Dasmarinas City, Cavite and on June 11, 2022 at Brgy Burgos, Pakil, Laguna.
