It has no Constitution and By-Laws. In short, it was samahan or barkadahan (gang) and was confined to the Squad members only. There was no originality of conceptualized ideas. They called themselves the “Anitos Diablo Squad”. History should refer to them as the “Honorary Diablo Squad’.

• GF Abraham voluntarily relinquished his position, powers and authority as the over-all head of the DIABLO SQUAD in favor of SGF LAPULAPU.

• LAPULAPU drafted the original Constitution and By-Laws of the Diablo Squad and was subsequently ratified by the members of the Founding Chapter of Iligan City. The alarming expansion of the Association in Iligan City ands nearby provinces prompted BRIG GEN ALFREDO OLANO AFP, Commanding General, Regional Command 12, to exert pressure for the change of name. The former convened as assembly at his residence at Empire Village, Palao, Iligan City on November 16, 1980 and adopted, ratified, approved the Constitution and By-Laws of the Diablo Squads, Crime Busters.

FSGF LAPULAPU commissioned Sgt Malih “Mohammad” Maung PC as a pioneering DSCB organizer at the time were Maj Edwin “Rommel” Vargas PA, Maj Ernesto “Original” Cabading PA (Deceased), and Maj Efren “Nog2” Arayata PC. SPO3 Meneleo “Yul” Seron PNP is just a part of the evolution of the DSCB expansion in the said area.

1982 - This period shall be known as the “Year of Confrontation”. LAPULAPU was reassigned from RSU Iligan City to RSU 12 Headquarters, Camp Parang, Maguindanao. Brig Gen Valerio Perez, AFP warned him to stop the recruitment activities and holding of conference inside the camp. Otherwise, he will be arrested. He hurriedly transferred his family to his hometown in the Municipality of Tagum, Davao del Norte. This was the first harassment made by a top ranking officer of the AFP against leader of the DSCB. The group continued with their expansion activities. They stood pat on their principles and were willing to die for a cause.

1983 - This period shall be known as the “Year of Persecution” LAPULAPU was reassigned to Tuguegarao, Cagayan, Abraham was transferred to Camarines Province, and PATTON was relocated at GHQ, Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City.

- Sometime in the middle part of 1983, the above-mentioned officers met in a canteen at GHQ, Camp Aguinaldo to discuss strategies on how to address the dilemma of the fraternity members. LAPULAPU suggested that one of them should resign from the military service and go back to Mindanao to boast the morale of the persecuted DSCB

- members. There was a moment of silence. Finally, the deepening silence was broken by a firm decision of LAPULAPU to do the offering before the altar of sacrifice for a worthy cause of the Association. It was also agreed that LAPULAPU will spearhead the expansion in Mindanao, while Abraham and PATTON will cover Luzon and Visayas, respectively.

- The First Regional Assembly of the DSCB was held at Marcos Sports Center, Cagayan de Oro City initiated by Sgt Dionisio “Founder Molder” Quieta Jr. It was attended by more or less One Hundred members coming from the different provinces of Region X.

It was featured in the national and local newspapers as “EL DIABLO”. Then LT GEN FIDEL VALDEZ RAMOS, AFP engineered the disbandment of the DSCB Association. A Manifesto for the said purpose was signed by Abraham, Patton, Nog2 and Rommel. LAPULAPU came late and was not able to sign the said manifesto.

- The GUARDIANS Centre Foundation Inc (GCFI), without prior approval of the GBI hierarchy, was registered with SEC Reg.
