Camp Navarro, Calarian, Zamboanga City- December 19, 2019.
Another member of the Abu Sayyaf’s Ajang-Ajang faction surrendered Wednesday morning to military authorities in Sulu.
Al-amin Jul-ambri, a.k.a. Albura, yielded to soldiers of Task Force 92 under Joint Task Force Sulu’s 1st Brigade Combat Team. Jul-ambri turned over to military troops his US Garand rifle with pieces of ammunition and a magazine clip. He was then presented to 1BCT Commander Brig. Gen. Leopoldo Imbang, Jr. in Barangay Buhanginan, Patikul at 1:30pm on December 18.
Jul-ambri received a sack of rice and financial assistance from the military. He is now in the custody of TF92 for custodial debriefing.
The surrendered militant is a follower of Abu Sayyaf sub-leader Alkam Uljamal Hadjail. “All military and non-military actions are intensified by our ground forces to dissuade and convince more militants to lay down their arms and abandon their cause to put an end to terrorism in the province,” said JTF Sulu Commander Maj. Gen. Corleto Vinluan, Jr.
“Constant efforts by your armed forces will be exerted to win the hearts of rebels, that they may heed our call and reconsider crossing the line for good,” said Lt. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana, commander of Western Mindanao Command.
“We want lasting peace and development in Mindanao, so genuine reconciliation should be made,” he added.
