Blast jolts ticketing office in Tacurong City

From GMANews (Nov 16): Blast jolts ticketing office in Tacurong City

A loud explosion jolted an area near a ticketing office along the national highway in Tacurong City, Sultan Kudarat at about 7:30 a.m. Friday, a police official said. Supt. Gilbert Tuzon, chief of Tacurong City Police, also said cops have arrested a suspect identified as Abdul Usman, also known as ‘Obing,’ 37, of Barangay Kudal in Pagalungan, Maguindanao. No one was reported hurt in the incident, he added. According to Tuzon, the suspect admitted he is connected with the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Movement (BIFF) under a certain Commander Gani. The BIFF, a breakaway group of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, was organized by MILF rouge commander Ustadz Ameril Umbra Kato. The suspect also identified a certain Dots Andot as the mastermind of the incident. Tuzon, however, said police are still investigating the motive behind the blast. Moreover, he said they have recovered from another area along the same highway an improvised explosive device, which failed to explode. The latest blast was the fifth in Sultan Kudarat since October, reports said.
