At least 10 kidnap victims are still in the hands of the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) in Sulu province.
This was reported by Lt. Gen. Rustico Guerrero, commander of the Western Mindanao Command (WesMinCom), on Friday (July 4) amid ongoing operations against the bandit group.
The kidnap victims reportedly include two Malaysians who were kidnapped in Semporna in June.
Guerrero said that the Wesmincom is still verifying reports that one kidnap victim had been injured in an encounter the other week.
On Wednesday (July 2), Wesmincom captured a major headquarters of the bandit group in Sulu, reportedly the camp of ASG leader Radulan Sahiron.
