A member of the Dawlah Islamiya (DI), formerly known as the Maute group, has surrendered to military authorities in the province of Lanao del Sur, officials announced Friday.
Lt. Col. Rafman Altre, Army’s 82nd Infantry Battalion commander, said the Dawlah Islamiya member, whose name was being withheld for security reasons, surrendered around 3 p.m. Thursday in Barangay Bubong Madanding, Marantao, Lanao del Sur.
Altre said the Dawlah Islamiya surrenderer has turned over a cal.45 pistol and a shotgun.
“Based on our initial custodial debriefing, the surrenderer revealed that he was recruited by a certain Abu Anas, a Dawlah Islamiyah member,” Altre said.
Brig. Gen. Romeo Brawner, Army’s 103rd Infantry Brigade commander, said the focused military operations against the Dawlah Islamiya will continue without let-up.
“We encourage local terrorist groups and their supporters to surrender and submit themselves to the folds of the law in order to make their community peaceful,” Brawner said.
