LEGAZPI CITY, Philippines – A military official yesterday tagged a leader of the New People’s Army (NPA) as responsible for the beheading of a barangay councilman in Guinobatan, Albay last Nov. 11.

Maj. Narsan Obuyes, spokesman of the Army’s 2nd Infantry Battalion, said Allan Clete, alias Jack, was pinpointed by villagers as the one who beheaded Ely Oguis.

Obuyes said Clete replaced Antonio Perelonia, an NPA tax collector who was killed in an encounter with soldiers in Barangay Oma-Oma, Ligao City last Sept. 27.

Oguis was kidnapped on the night of Nov. 11 and his headless body was found the next day.
