From InterAksyon (Oct 22): Suspected JI bomber arrested in Maguindanao to be transferred to Manila



A suspected big-time bomber arrested Tuesday morning is scheduled to be transferred to Manila today.

The transfer is to treat the suspect, identified as Abi Salman alias Sauman Usman and Nanam, who was hit in the right leg when he tried to grab an M16 Armalite rifle from one of the arresting officers during a joint operation in Barangay Tuka, Mamasapano, Maguindanao.

Salman is linked to bombings in different parts of Central Mindanao and is believed to be a nephew of Jemaah Islamiyah-trained bomber Basit Usman.

Salman’s arrest was based on the arrest warrant released by Judge Rogelio Narisma of Regional Trial Court Branch 23, Kidapawan City due to cases of multiple murder, multiple frustrated murder, and attempted murder, said Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao director Chief Supt. Noel Delos Reyes.

Operatives of the SPMKI-OCPNP, Anti-Kidnapping Group (AKG), PNP Intelligence Group, S2 45th Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army, Maguindanao Provincial Police Office, with the help of the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC), participated in the operation, added delos Reyes.
