From the Mindanao Examiner (Dec 25): Sayyaf fighter captured in Zamboanga City
Police and military agents arrested an Abu Sayyaf fighter in Zamboanga City who escaped authorities from nearby Basilan province in the Muslim autonomous region, officials said Monday.
The 45-year old Baser Ahmad was captured over the weekend in the village of San Roque following a surveillance operation by the local police force and members of the Naval Intelligence and Security Group.
Officials said Ahmad is part of an Abu Sayyaf group operating in Basilan and is facing a string of criminal charges and has been long wanted by authorities. It was unknown whether Ahmad was planning an attack in Zamboanga or not.
He is currently being interrogated by the police in an effort to extract information on the Abu Sayyaf activities in Basilan and Zamboanga.
