Lunsmann kidnappers sentenced to life imprisonment

From CNN Philippines (Nov 20): Lunsmann kidnappers sentenced to life imprisonment

Three Abu Sayyaf members were sentenced to life imprisonment for the abduction of a U.S. citizen and two others in Zamboanga City in 2011.

Zamboanga City Police Office City Director Sr. Supt. Angelito Casimiro identified the Abu Sayyaf members as Patik Samson aka Mauck or Samuray, Meijing Jama aka Eyebag, and Jamil Ajilulu aka Robin.

The three were sentenced to life imprisonment without the eligibility for parole for the kidnapping of Gerfa Yeatts Lunsmann, her son Kevin, and another relative.

Lunsmann's group was abducted while vacationing in an island barangay in Zamboanga City in 2011.

It will be recalled that Lunsmann was personally escorted by FBI agents from the United States to personally testify against the suspects last March 24.

The three suspects are former detainees at the Zamboanga City Reformatory Center.

The conviction of the group followed the promulgation of judgment of Abu Sayyaf leader Khair Mundos and four other persons last Monday (November 16).

Samson, Jama, and Ajilulu will be brought to the New Bilibid Prison in Muntinlupa to serve their sentence.
