Police Colonel Richard Verceles, operations chief of the Area Police Command-Western Mindanao, said the seven Basilan-based Abu Sayyaf bandits surrendered after successful negotiations launched when 100 of their Sulu-based cohorts surrendered on July 30 and welcomed by Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary Benjamin Abalos Jr.
Verceles said they surrendered in Ungkaya Pukan, Basilan and were formally presented around 3:30 p.m. Thursday, August 4, 2022, at the headquarters of the 84th Special Action Company of the Philippine National Police-Special Action Force (PNP-SAF) at Sitio San Ramon in Talisay village.
