Authorities have arrested an Abu Sayyaf Group member tagged in the killing of a police official in 2009, the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) said. Police Director Samuel Pagdilao Jr., CIDG chief, identified the arrested suspect as Najim Laisong alias Uyong, 20, resident of Barangay Tumahubong, Sumisip, Basilan. The CIDG said its tracker team and intelligence operatives of the Armed Forces of the Philippines arrested Laisong for four counts of murder in his village on December 14. Laisong is an ASG member under the leadership of Commander Abugao Bayali operating in the suspect's hometown, according to Police Senior Superintendent Edgar Danao, Zamboanga CIDG chief.
