COTABATO CITY -- Police authorities are in custody of two alleged members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) who were found to be carrying two unlicensed pistols.
In a report Tuesday, Maj. Glenn Mar Avisa, city police station 1 commander, identified the two as Ebrahim Tasig Guilaon, 28, of Barangay Kalanganan 1 here; and Guiahud Abdullah Mama, 33, of Barangay Bulibod, Sultan Kudarat, Maguindanao.
Found in their possession were a loaded .45-caliber pistol and a 9mm Beretta pistol.
The suspects were nabbed early morning at a fish port area on Jose Lim Street, Barangay Poblacion Mother, following a tip from concerned civilians.
“The two did not resist arrest when surrounded by police agents,” Avisa said.
Also found from them were two identification cards stating they are members of the MILF’s 105th base command based in Maguindanao.
"Up to now, we are still waiting for representatives of the MILF to come over our station and confirm the link of the suspects to their organization,” Avisa said.
He said the two refused to answer questions from police investigators on why they were carrying unlicensed firearms.
Charges for violation of Republic Act 10591, or the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act, were being readied against Guilaon and Mama.
