GATTARAN, Cagayan, Sept. 30 (PIA) - - The 77th Infantry (Don't Dare) Battalion is currently conducting security patrols, coordination, visits and clearing operations after assuming control of its area of operations in East Cagayan.

While performing these tasks, operating troops of Alfa Company, 77IB under 1Lt Dondon Malidas (Inf) PA was approached by concerned citizens and barangay officials at barangay Tanglagan, Gattaran on the presence of a suspected wanted person.

Two platoons of the same unit converged at Sitio Salong, Barangay Tanglagan, Gattaran.

The suspect disclosed that he is Boyet Fernandez Tuliao and also admitted that he is wanted by the police. He was accompanied by his son, Boyboy Tuliao, a former New People's Aym (NPA) regular member.

Per coordination of the 77IB with the Gattaran Police Station, PNP personnel returned to Barangay Tanglagan and the suspect was turned over to them for the legal procedures.

The AFP and PNP forces will continue to work together to contribute to the attainment of peace, order, security, and development in Cagayan.
