3rd Marine Brigade spokesperson Cpt. Orchie Bobis said Charlene's and Jimboy's reunion with their mother was a gift from the Joint Task Force Peacock (JTFP) under the command of 3rd Marine Brigade (3MBde) commander Brig. General Nestor Herico.
Ito ang puntong idiniin ng mga lokal na opisyal sa isinagawang "Gabay Alalay Forum" ng Provincial Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (PTF-ELCAC) noong Hulyo 22 at 24 sa mga bayan ng Taytay at El Nido.
The event on Thursday morning was led by the Palawan Provincial Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (PTF ELCAC) and the 3rd Marine Brigade (3MBde) of the Philippine Marine Corps (PMC).
In a statement issued Monday, the Palawan Provincial Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (PTF ELCAC) said the NPA attacks disregarded the welfare of the people especially the frontliners against the coronavirus disease.
3rd Marine Brigade (MBDe) commander Brig. Gen. Charlton Sean Gaerlan said Tabla, who is the coordinator of the nationwide association of human rights lawyers in the province, came to them on December 4 to clear his name of any link to the insurgent group.
"Ang sa akin lang naman talaga ang sadya ko is ma-clear lang talaga ang pangalan ko. Hindi ako NPA, hindi ko alam na 'yong nasalihan ko ay under pala ng NPA. Ang gusto ko lang talaga kaya ako sumuko ay ma-clear ang pangalan ko dahil hindi rin ako mapakali. Hindi ko naman alam kasi na NPA pala ang sinalihan ko na grupo ng mga kabataan," Rico Soñer said.
"Hindi ko maintindihan 'yong naramdaman kong saya. Niyakap ko 'yong aking anak, kasama ko siya sa pagkain... kapag nakikita ako nagmamano sa akin, hindi ko maintindihan 'yong tuwa na nararamdaman ko kasama siya dito sa loob ng Brigade. For the first time, niyakap ko siya ng hindi nagtatago," he said.
