Lacson paid tribute to Toda, who died in his arms following the NPA attack. His four other soldiers survived but suffered serious injuries, according to him, he added.
Lacson said the encounter happened when he and his men tried to respond to an NPA raid at Sitio Dicamay in Jones, Isabela. Meanwhile, Lacson said the province of Isabela was able to deliver high votes for him when he ran for senator in 2001. “Malalim ang mga pinagsamahan namin kasi dito. That is why we not only expect but we also feel the support of our friends, mostly from the local government officials. Marami pa ritong NPC . Marami rin kaming fraternal brothers dito. Meron ding Partido Reporma rito. So, we will bank on that,” Sotto said.
