| 2008-07-19 |
| An alleged member of the Abu Sayyaf Group (AGS) and a possible suspect in the kidnapping of an ABS-CBN news team last month was arrested in Sulu Friday. A certain Abu Kudama, an alleged ASG member, was reportedly arrested by the military in Sulu. Abu Kudama was allegedly part of the group that kidnapped ABS-CBN senior correspondent Ces Oreña-Drilon, cameraman Jimmy Encarnacion and Angelo Valderama, and Mindanao State University (MSU) professor Octavio Dinampo last June. Allegedly in his possession when nabbed was a wallet owned by Encarnacion. He was reportedly also seen in the video secretly taken by Encarnacion while in captivity. The suspect is currently undergoing questioning by Task Force "Ces" at the 3rd Marine Brigade in Sulu. |
