Local authorities on Saturday rescued in Sarangani province two abducted security guards, a police report said. | |||
Mark Lantin and Daniel Bolunos were released unharmed by their captors on Saturday morning, some 29 hours after they were abducted by armed men at the Rosa Farm, Sitio Nakolel, Barangay Lago in Glan town at 4 a.m. on Good Friday. | |||
Reports reaching Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Dir. Gen. Nicanor Bartolome from Central Mindanao said a crisis management committee – composed of personnel from Glan Municipal Police Station, Sarangani Police Provincial Police Office, Regional Intelligence Division and local government authorities – was convened immediately to secure the safe release of the captives. | |||
At the same time, PNP units had conducted operations to limit the movement of the abductors within a smaller area. | |||
Chief Supt Benjardi Mantele, PNP Regional Director in Central Mindanao, said the two victims were brought to Barangay Congan before their abductors were prompted to release the victims unconditionally due to police pressure. | |||
