On June 26, 2006 Cadapan and Empeño who were both alumni of the University of the Philippines Diliman were abducted by suspected military men in Hagonoy, Bulacan, during the tenure of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, and were accused of being members of the Communist Party of the Philippines. This incident took place at a time when Central Luzon was being driven by a fierce conflict between the government and the communist New People’s Army. According to the official investigation, eyewitness Raymond Manolo stated that Palparan tortured Sherlyn by hitting her mouth and punching her breasts and stomach area until they bled. Palparan also slammed wooden planks against the victim so that Sherlyn would admit she is a communist, while Sherlyn kept on saying that she wanted to go home to her parents. Manolo also noted that he saw the military stealing from nearby villagers, burning down dead bodies using gasoline, and shooting a man who was riding a carabao due to farm work. Manolo’s account also noted that on April 2007, he saw Sherlyn lying naked on a chair that had fallen on the floor, her wrist tied together, one leg tied down, while being hit by wooden planks, electrocuted, and afterwards being half-drowned. The military also played with her body, poking wooden objects inside Sherlyn’s vagina, after finding out that Sherlyn was going to write a letter to somebody. Sherlyn, due to intense torture, blurted out that the letter was Karen’s idea. The military then dragged Karen out from her cell, stripped her naked, tied her wrists and ankles, beaten, water-tortured, burned with cigarettes, and raped with pieces of wood. Manolo afterwards washed the two women’s clothes, including their panties drenched with blood. Manolo also noted that the bucket of piss of the two women were filled with ‘chunks of blood’.

Palparan later received a master’s in business administration from Philippine Christian University in 1994 as well as a master’s degree on national security management at the National Defense College of the Philippines in 1999.
