SAN JOSE CITY- Army and police operatives dug out from a shallow a grave in a semi-forested mountain part in this northern Nueva Ecija city the body of Kathlyn Ramos, a 19-year-old coed who mysteriously disappeared in 2004.
Supt. Peter Guibong, city police chief, said the body of Kathlyn, a former member of the militant League ofFilipino Students (LFS) was positively identified by her mother, Tarcila,50.
A military chaplain led the operatives from 48th infantry batallion in offering a prayer on the grave after Ramos's remains were recovered at about 4 p.m. Thursday.
Police said the graveyard, where operatives took 3 hours of walk to reach, was discovered after authorities quizzed a former rebel who said he wsa the one to dig the about 2-inch deep grave.
Ramos was a Bachelor of Science in Animal Husbandry student from the state-run Central Luzon State University. Militant organizations blamed to soldiers several cases of forced disappearances. But military Ramos' case could be another story of purging by the New People's Army of suspected government agents in its rank.
