By ANTHONY VARGAS, The Manila Times Reporter

New People's Army rebels are planning to bomb four power plants in Southern
Tagalog, prompting the Philippine National Police to raise its alert level. 

The PNP spokesman, Chief Supt. Leopoldo Bataoil, said police units
nationwide were placed on full alert effective 6 a.m. Saturday. 

He did not name the target plants, but there are several plants in Southern
Luzon, including the 750-megawatt Caliraya-Botocan-Kalayaan (CBK) power
complex in Laguna and the coal-fired 470-MW plant in Quezon.

Bataoil said that raising the PNP's alert level was also part of security
measures for All Saints' Day on Tuesday.

"Fifty percent of the whole police force will be on duty. The rest will be
on standby and ready on call. Police will make their presence felt in areas
of convergences," he said. 

A police officer assigned to the PNP Intelligence Group said the communist
rebels' plot to bomb the power plants was discovered after three NPA rebels
were arrested in a checkpoint in Taytay, Rizal, late Thursday afternoon. 

Police and military reports identified the rebels as Noel Madrigalejos,
alias Ka Boni; Jaime Cruz, alias Ka Albert, and a certain Lauro Taberteka,
alias Nilo. 

Recovered from them were a .38-caliber revolver; two hand grenades; a bladed
weapon; subversive documents and a L-300 van (license plate TKS-692). 

The reports said that Madrigalejos and Cruz belong to the NPA Antasso Aramil
Command, which operates mainly in the provinces of Rizal and Laguna. The two
are in the military's order of battle.

The reports also said Madrigalejos is a platoon leader of the NPA's Regional
Operational Command in the Southern Tagalog Regional Committee, which raided
the municipal hall of San Andres in Quezon province and in Montalban, Rizal,
and took part in the burning of two buses. 

The 17,000-strong National Capital Regional Police Office has been placed on
its highest alert level since Friday morning in anticipation of the long
weekend. 

Bataoil said the conviction of three terrorists who blew up a passenger bus
in Makati City on February 14 is a big boost to the government's campaign
against terrorism. 

An Indonesian and two Filipinos were sentenced to death by a Makati City
Regional Trial Court on Friday for the bombing, which killed four people. 

"This is a big blow to terrorists and swift justice for their victims,"
Bataoil said in a text message. 

Sentenced to death were Rohmat Abdurrohim, Gamal Baharan and Angelo
Trinidad. 

Abdurrohim is the first member of the Indonesian terrorist group Jemaah
Islamiah to be convicted in the country. The two Filipinos are members of
the Abu Sayyaf.

Their conviction came two days after security forces arrested Hilarion del
Rosario, alias Ahmad Santos, the leader of the Rajah Solaiman Movement, and
eight other suspected terrorists in Zamboanga City. 

The Rajah Solaiman is a radical group made up mostly of Christians who have
converted to Islam. It has been involved in bombing attacks in the country
since it was discovered in Anda, Pangasinan, in 2002. 

Security officials said the group was also involved in the February 14
bombing; its deadliest attack was the bombing of a ferry in February 2004,
which killed more than a hundred people.
