From the Philippine Star (Nov 12): Another ASG suspect falls in Zambo City

Another Abu Sayyaf suspect, tagged in the spate of kidnappings in Basilan, was captured by police forces in a coastal remote village in this city, according to police. The captured suspect was identified as Jamiri Jawali Hamid alias Abu Gabby, a native of Basilan province. Hamid was captured by Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) unit of the Zamboanga City Police Office and the Regional Intelligence Division, and Regional Public Safety Battalion in his safehouse in Barangay Labuan Saturday afternoon. Hamid has a standing warrant of arrest issued by Basilan judge Leo Jay Principe for kidnapping with serious illegal detention. Hamid’s arrest was the second in a span of three days, when police forces also captured three Abu Sayyaf suspects and foiled the plot to bomb Lamitan City and kidnap a prominent resident. The suspects were identified as Patek Samson alias Mungkos, Jimboy Sahabat Mandul, and Hamid Damain, all members of the urban terrorist group (UTG) of the Abu Sayyaf group under notorious leader Puruji Indama. The police forces recovered from the three suspects two units of motorcycles – one rigged with improvised explosive device (IED) and another, which was stolen - and a caliber .45 pistol Mark IV Colt with silencer, magazine loaded with nine rounds of ammunition.
