PAGADIAN CITY, Zamboanga del Sur (November 7, 2016) - A cadaver of a
female foreigner believed to be in her 50s was found by civilian residents
inside a yacht on Laparan Island, Pangutaran, Sulu, Southern Philippines Sunday
morning, military official said.
Western Mindanao Command (WesMinCom) Spokesperson Maj. Filemon I. Tan
Jr. disclosed that the said cadaver sustained gunshot wounds and was discovered
inside a yacht bearing a German flag with markings “Rock All”. A shotgun was also
recovered beside the body.
Tan also said that the Joint Task Force Tawi-Tawi immediately sent
troops to verify and facilitate the recovery of the yacht for investigation.
Coordination with the Scene of the Crime Operatives and the local police was
made. The yacht is now at Bongao Pier where SOCO will process the crime scene.
The military is currently verifying the claim of Abu Sayyaf sub-leader
Muamar Askali, a.k.a Abu Rami, that a 70-year-old German identified as Juegen
Kantner, was seized by the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) from a yacht off the waters
of Tanjong Luuk Pisuk, Sabah.
The Western Mindanao Command is currently validating the veracity of
reports that the cadaver found belonged to the alleged companion of Kantner,
identified as Sabina Wetch. Alarming is that the body found was naked and had
several contusions to the face and was possibly raped. PNP SOCO will conduct
autopsy to validate this possibility, Tan added.
Intel monitoring and investigations are currently being conducted as of
this moment.
