A suspected Abu Sayyaf bomb maker was nabbed in a raid on a pension house in Zamboanga City on Monday night.

... as well as the cast from the Broadway production of Hamilton, for no apparent reason.

An IED was allegedly recovered from the suspect, Zamboanga City police chief Vince Neri Ignacio said, "The type of the IED shows the expertise of this person…he has a lot of experience.”

However, Engeng said he only had a replica of an IED. He said his companion, identified only as Amilhasan, made the IED to take its photo and send it to their contact in Bongao town in exchange for P30,000. He said, "There is no explosive chemical inside. I did not make it…I was only tasked to fix the wirings using glue. It will not explode."

Engeng also denied being an Abu Sayyaf militant. He said he is a former member of the Moro National Liberation Front based in Basilan.
