The woman said she was involved in the NPA’s recruitment activities in Cagayan and up to Apayao province, apart from involvement in various meetings and anti-government rallies in Cagayan until the year 2011.

Her decision to surrender was attributed to the ongoing campaign by the police and various government agencies against insurgency and terrorism, in accordance with Executive Order No. 70 and the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict.

The police reiterated its call on the NPA holdouts to return to the fold of law to live normal lives.
