Kuratong Baleleng

Kuratong Baleleng is an organized crime syndicate in the Philippines that once was an anti-communist vigilante group. They received nationwide attention due to their alleged end in a shootout with the Police in May 1995 in Quezon City.

History

The group was originally established by the Botanical Youth Club in 1986 to guard against the spread of communist guerrillas in Misamis Occidental, Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur provinces. The first leader, chosen directly by the military, was Ongkoy Parojinog, who allegedly used the group both for its official purpose as well as to conduct illegal activities. Parojinog was later killed by Philippine soldiers. When the group disbanded in 1988, they continued to operate as an organized crime syndicate.

In early 2014, the film Sa Ngalan ng Ama, Ina, at mga Anak about Kuratong Baleleng, starring actor Robin Padilla, was released. In April 2014, a long-time Kuratong Baleleng fugitive, Edgar Digamo, was shot and killed by police after Digamo started shooting at them in Lapu-Lapu, Philippines after hiding for 13 years.
