| A ranking communist leader said to be responsible for the torture and execution of hundreds of civilians was arrested Sunday in a joint police and military operations. Macapagal-Arroyo yesterday presenÂÂted to media Mel Gracilla Laurenaria, an executive member of the Marxist-Leninist Rebolusyonaryong Hukbo ng Bayan (RHB). Cheeze! Are the Huks still around as a separate entity? Or have they folded into NPA? Laurenaria is believed to have helped in a campaign to purge the RHB’s ranks of suspected government spies. Operation Missing Link is also being blamed for the execution of hundreds of civilians in the Southern Tagalog region suspected of helping government forces. She was arrested near the Maypajo market in Dagat-DagaÂÂtan, Caloocan City around 4:30 p.m. She is wanted for kidnapping and serious illegal detention. She sounds like such a nice lady... |
