An alleged New People’s Army leader and four of his men died in an encounter with government forces in Sorsogon province Sunday morning.

Police Major Maria Luisa Calubaquib, Bicol police spokesperson, said the clash between 31st Infantry Battalion and undetermined number of NPA members broke at around 7:15 am at Barangay Tugas in Matnog, Sorsogon.
