KIDAPAWAN CITY\u2014-Authorities\u00a0on Thursday\u00a0said they had arrested three suspected New People\u2019s Army (NPA) members, who might have been involved in the 2012 murder of a Swiss-Filipino trader and the January 6 killing of a former Presidential Security Group (PSG) in North Cotabato.<\/p>\n\n

Lt. Col. Harold Argamosa, commander of the Army\u2019s 39th Infantry Battalion, said soldiers and policemen made the arrests in Barangay Balite in Magpet, North Cotabato\u00a0on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n

He said the suspects, Harold Adiaton and Ian Solis alias \u201cIyan,\u201d were both active members of the NPA\u2019s Special Partisan Unit (Sparu); while Dandan Mailan Andas, alias \u201cDodong,\u201d was a recruiter under the Guerrilla Front 53 of the NPA\u2019s Southern Mindanao Regional Committee.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cDandan is a known recruiter of the communist movement and a member of a kangaroo court (an irregular unauthorized court) of the underground mass base of the NPA as revealed by former NPA surrenderees,\u201d Argamosa said.<\/p>\n\n

He said Adiaton and Solis had a hand in the January 6 killing of Technical Sergeant Ronel Galupo in Magpet town.<\/p>\n\n

He said as operatives of the NPA\u2019s Merardo Arce Command, the duo were also behind the March 2012 murder of Swiss-Filipino Patrick Weinneger in Kidapawan City.<\/p>\n\n

The Merardo Arce Command had earlier owned up to Weinneger\u2019s killing, saying he \u201cwas punished for his involvement in the killing of Italian missionary priest Fausto Tentorio in Arakan, North Cotabato\u201d in October 2011.<\/p>\n\n

Argamosa said Solis and Adiaton were also probably behind the killing of Bernabe \u201cBantito\u201d Abanilla, the chief of North Cotabato\u2019s civil security unit, who was shot dead in February 2016 in Arakan.<\/p>\n\n

The duo\u2019s other victims, he said, included another Army sergeant, a village councilor of Mahongcog, Magpet and a vendor.<\/p>\n\n

The three suspected rebels were detained at the Magpet police lockup cell. Edwin O. Fernandez<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
