CAMP DIEGO SILANG, La Union, Philippines – An alleged communist rebel surrendered to authorities in this province yesterday.

La Union police director Senior Superintendent Angelito Dumangeng said Joey Adviento, alias Ka JM, 27, was a member of the local communist group Iskwad Tres under the west committee of the Danilo Ben Command.

Adviento turned over a US-made shotgun with a defaced serial number.

It was the second time that a rebel returned to the fold of law in the province this year.               

The government committed to give financial support to every rebel who would surrender to the authorities.
