Suspected Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) bandits, with vengeance in
mind, killed two civilians and wounded another after strafing a motorboat
passing at the municipal waters of Tiomabal, Maibung, and Tapul, Sulu Tuesday
afternoon.
Joint Task Group Sulu commander Col.Alan Arrojado said the
incident took place at 3 p.m.
He added that the victims and all surviving passengers of
the motorboat are residents of Laminusa
Island , Siasi town, Sulu.
Arrojado said the names of the victims were still being
determined as of this posting.
He added that suspected ASG men, aboard a fast motor boat,
came from the direction of Lugus and fired on the civilian-packed craft.
Arrojado said that they saw no motive for the incident saved
for the successful rescue of kidnap victim Guan Kim Maujon, a native of Laminusa Island , from the clutches of the bandit
group last week.
In the said operation, seven ASG men were killed.
