Due to the austere security measure and sustained cooperation by the community, ground forces thwarted a bomb attack on a military detachment in Barangay Kajatian, Indanan, Sulu at 5:45pm today, September 8. The bomber was a lone fatality.
The suicide bomber was in ABAYA attire, a woman and foriegn looking with long hair based on the recovered mutilated head; however, the recovered dismembered hand is similar to that of a man. The trigger mechanism was also recovered. The scene of the crime has been secured and preserved while SOCO investigation is ongoing as of this report.
We call on every Suluanon to remain vigilant and to report suspicious items and personalities to authorities.
We assure the public that the WestMinCom forces shall sustain our security and peace efforts to prevent hostile acts that may disrupt the peace and development in the Bangsamoro Region.
