Rojas said Malayo is on “full duty status.” He is not relieved.
Malayo and his men were conducting clearing operations in Barangay Mampang when he was “hostaged” by the MNLF. His abduction was confirmed by the PNP.
Malayo emerged early evening bringing along with him 23 MNLF surrenderees. He said he and his men did not engage the MNLF in a gun battle. They only talked. – Rappler.com
