From the Mindanao Examiner blog (Jul 3): Police capture notorious kidnapper in Southern Philippines
Basir Sakilan
Police captured a notorious kidnapper during an operation Wednesday in Payao town in Zamboanga Sibugay province in southern Philippines, officials said.
Officials said Basir Sakilan, 41, was tracked down in his hideout in Bulawan village where he was captured.
“Sakilan was the primary suspect in the kidnapping of Reynaldo Drapeza in November 9, 2010,” said Chief Inspector Ariel Huesca, a regional police spokesman.
He said Drapeza was traveling on a boat when kidnapped by Sakilan’s group.
Kidnappers freed Drapeza on April 2011 after his family paid a still unspecified amount of ransom.
Huesca said Sakilan is currently being investigated by the police. It was not immediately known whether Sakilan was involved in other kidnappings or if he is a member of any rebel group.
