Maj. Gen. Corleto Vinluan, Joint Task Force Sulu commander, identified the ASG surrenderers as Mukarim Nasilin, 31, and Sahi Hasim, 28, both followers of ASG sub-leader Sibh Pisih.
Vinluan said Nasilim and Hasim surrendered around 9 a.m. Wednesday to the headquarters of the Army’s 41st Infantry Battalion in Sitio Bato Habah, Barangay Matatal, Maimbung, Sulu.
The two turned over two US-made Garand rifles to Lt. Col. Alaric Avelino delos Santos, commanding officer of the Army’s 41st Infantry Battalion, the military official said.
The two were later presented to Col. Antonio Bautista Jr., deputy commander of the Army’s 1102nd Infantry Brigade in Bud Datu, Barangay Tagbak, Indanan, Sulu.
The military is conducting a series of offensives against the ASG bandits in Sulu.
