versus captured 'NPA' men

The Commission on Human Rights will present this week two witnesses in a murder case in Milagrosa, Santa Catalina, Oriental Negros, to determine the involvement of alleged Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army members Raul Villar and Fernando Mahilum.

This developed as Wilma, the wife of Ka Villar who was apprehended recently, revealed the involvement of her husband in the Sta. Catalina ambush slaying of four municipal employees in May 8, 2002. She clarified, that it was staged while her husband was still with the Revolutionary Proletarian Army-Alex Boncayao Brigade but could not tell what year Drilon joined the NPA.
