Encounter between Government forces and a rebellious group happened at Brgy. Caorasan Bula, Camarines Sur last March 30, 2023. 

On March 30th, Thursday, around 9:00 am residents from Brgy. Caorasan, Bula, Camarines Sur alerted the members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) about the suspicious presence of armed men and alleged members of Communist Terrorist Groups (CTG) in the vicinity of Caorasan Elementary School. To ensure the safety of the community, particularly the students and teachers in the said school, troops from the 49th infantry battalion responded to the citizens' request for help and had an exchange of gunfire with the rebellious group.

In the video posted online by Lani Landagan-Toledo, a teacher at Caorasan Elementary School, multiple sounds of gunshots and explosions are heard. Students and teachers can also be seen running into the classrooms in fear. No one was reported injured or killed among the government and civilians in the said encounter but two Anti-Personnel Mines (APMs), ammunition, magazines and propaganda materials were recovered at the scene by the authorities. PNP Bula also alerted their checkpoint of this incident as a precaution for what would occur next.

DOJ will investigate torture allegations of Degamo suspect

  by Adrian T. Organo  If it is true that the suspects were tortured and threatened the safety of their families by the authorities, the court should pay attention to this issue. It must be investigated, for us to know the truth. Another thing that should be focused upon in the investigation is the person who is really the prime suspect of the crime. In regards to this chaos case, many side stories were heard and all of the stories have different angles, points, and prime suspects, but one thing is for sure to be very disturbing is the allegation of torturing the suspects well in my own opinion if the investigation is still on process everyone must presume to be innocent until it was proven that they are guilty of the crime so any punishment must not be done first. However, in the claims of the suspects they were tortured and it seems like authorities took advantage of their position and abused their power which was absolutely wrong.  NEWS: https://bawaannews.blogspot.com...
