MALAYSIAN HOSTAGES SPOTTED IN SULU VILLAGE


KOTA KINABALU: The three Malaysian and Indonesian fishermen kidnapped from the waters off Kinabatangan last December were recently seen guarded by Abu Sayyaf members and sub-leaders including one wanted by the Eastern Sabah Security Command (Esscom), a Philippine terrorism analyst told Daily Express.

Chairman of the Philippine Institute for Peace, Violence and Terrorism Research, Professor Rommel Banlaoi, said the three were spotted in a village in Sulu.

“The remaining kidnap victims were seen encamped in Barangay (village) Bud Bawis, off Panamao town, Sulu,” Rommel told Daily Express, citing information from an intelligence officer in the Philippine Government.

“Abu Sayyaf sub-leaders Majan Sahidjuan @ Apo Mike and Ben Wagas, [as well as Abu Sayyaf members] Abdullah Sali and Sansibal were seen with the hostages.”
.
Apo Mike is one of 18 Filipinos on Esscom’s most wanted list for suspected transborder crimes. Ben Wagas, another Abu Sayyaf sub-leader, and Sansibal are aliases, said Rommel.
