                    [Summary] => COTABATO CITY — City officials are urging the Armed Forces to initiate an immediate headcount of members of the Citizen Armed Forces Geographical Unit (CAFGU) here, now the subject of criticisms for failing to help the police and the military go after the Pentagon kidnapping syndicate.


Many of the city’s 162 CAFGU members, some of them issued with M-14 assault rifles, are employed as full-time security guards of business establishments here, thus depriving the city’s 37 barangays of local militiamen who can respond to security situations.

Maj. Julieto Ando, spokesman of the Army’s 6th Infantry Division, said dozens of intelligence operatives have also been fielded in two of the city’s major entry points to monitor movements of suspicious people entering the city.
