The residents, who asked not be identified, said they were not evading the warrants of arrest but they wanted to be detained at the NOPPO in Bacolod City, and not at the Pulupandan jail, out of fear. The
Pulupandan residents numbering about 60 named in the 187 issued warrants of arrest,
decided to voluntary surrender at the NOPPO headquarters in Bacolod City. | |
