Recently, on August 3, an officer of RPSB 13 said in a media interview that there was “an encounter between the police and the NPA” in Sitio Stand Puller, Brgy. Manila de Bugabos, Butuan City. But the NPA unit in the said area confirmed that it was not the Red fighters the RPSB-13 encountered, but only their fellow soldiers.
