Nineteen (19) alleged Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) members have surrendered to Joint Task Force Basilan.
The surrenderers include two ASG sub-leaders namely Nur Nassan Lahaman and Mudz-ar Angkun.
Other surrenderers are four members of the ASG sub-group Salappudin who are involved in the seajacking of MV Shuttle tugboat-1 last March 23.
The surrenderers gave up their twelve firearms.
On April 27, four other members of the ASG surrendered to Joint Task Force Sulu.
The Armed Forces of the Philippines says 40 ASG members from Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi have surrendered since President Rodrigo Duterte ordered the “no let up operations” against the Abu Sayyaf Group in January this year. — UNTV News & Rescue
