PROSPERIDAD, Agusan del Sur - Joint AFP and PNP elements in Region 13 arrested Ricardo Manili alias Joker of the North Central Mindanao Regional Committee (NCMRC) of the New People’s Army (NPA) on May 2, 2016 in Brgy Remedios, Esperanza, Agusan del Sur.
Alias Joker was arrested in a joint checkpoint of the 23rd Infantry Battalion, PNP’s Regional Public Safety Battalion (RPSB) 13 and Military Intelligence Group 16, Intelligence Service Armed Forces of the Philippines after the vehicle they were riding made a fast U-turn before reaching the COMELEC-sanctioned checkpoint. During the brief chase, the passengers of the unmarked Starex van tried to flee by foot prompting the operatives to pin them to the ground. A soldier immediately identified alias Joker as one of the passengers prompting the thorough search of the vehicle after all the passengers were accounted for.
Among those recovered from their possession were 3 handguns, a hand grenade, blasting caps, holsters and items of high intelligence value.
