#1 The Abu Sayyaf are known for hiding behind the skirts of women and children. They did it before - literally using women and children as 'human shields' and cowering behind them. So it is believable that they would employ them as literal shields. They are more like bandits.

On the other hand you would think the hostage would know what happened - but if he ran away how would he know they were gunned down?

BTW: These are not 'Real Men' either but a pack of rabit dogs.
