Sulu Vice Governor Abdusakur Tan confirmed on January 15, 2016, that the  former chair of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) Nurulaji “Nur” Misuari is in Sulu and is just hiding in one of the  towns in the province to avoid being arrested by the police.

Tan said “Misuari is in Sulu” and his presence in the province is of public knowledge.

Misuari is just hiding Sulu from pursuing authorities to avoid being arrested for his string of criminal cases, among them was the siege in Zamboanga City in September 2013, Tan said.

Tan also said that the recent gatherings of former MNLF forces in Indanan, Sulu have not disturbed the peace of the town.
 
When asked why the police failed to arrest Misuari during the gathering, Tan simply replied “the people of Sulu loves him and is protecting him from harm.” He did not elaborate further.
