Said IED believed to be emplaced by NPA unit in the area to inflict casualties to police and military.
"We condemn the Communist NPA Terrorists (CNTs) for continuously using IEDs which may inflict great harm to the civilians especially when placed in nearby communities such as roads where everybody is passing by. This is another violation to the mandates of International Humanitarian Law (IHL). If this was not found out, this will brought deaths and casualties to innocent lives”, Colonel Mortela said
"We thank the populace for always feeding us information that helps in preempting the terroristic activities of the CNTs. This is a clear manifestation that CNTs are losing the support of the masses,” Mortela added.
