Government authorities here believed that the Abu Sayyaf
brigands were behind the grenade explosion at a project site in the boundaries
of Lamitan City and Tipo-Tipo town in this
province.
At the same time, they believed that extortion is most
likely the motive behind the incident that took place around 9 p.m. Tuesday in
the boundaries of Barangay Parangbasak, Lamitan City
and Bohebaca, Tipo-Tipo town.
Eng’r. Nasser Abdulgani, Provincial Engineer’s
officer-in-charge, said Monday that no one was either killed or injured in the
grenade explosion except for heavy equipment--road roller--that was damaged.
Abdulgani said their personnel, who were undertaking a
farm-to-market-road project, were inside the sleeping quarters when the
incident occurred.
Abdulgani disclosed that they have received a text message
earlier from the Abu Sayyaf brigands demanding P900,000 protection money “as
one time bill.”
