Enlightened sayyaf yields in Basilan

PAGADIAN CITY (Feb. 23, 2021) - A lie-low Abu Sayyaf Group courier finally decided to lay down his arm on Monday morning in Maluso, Basilan, the WestMinCom Commander said.

“Jay-ar Amorin, a.k.a. Abuh Solaiman, 31 years old, a resident of Barangay Langaray, Sumisip, Basilan, and a follower of ASG sub-leader Radzmil Jannatul surrendered to the troops of the 14th Special Forces Company in Barangay Townsite, Maluso at 10 a.m., February 22, 2021,” Western Mindanao Command Chief Lt. Gen. Corleto Vinluan, J. disclosed.

Amorin handed over his M16 rifle with a short magazine and four ammunition.

He was subsequently presented to Lt. Col. Alex Ampati, Commanding Officer of the 4th Special Forces Battalion in Barangay Cabunbata, Isabela City, Basilan.

“We hope that those who are still hiding will make up their mind and come out. We urge them to do so because we truly want lasting peace to emerge here in the beautiful province of Basilan,” said Lt. Col Ampati. 

Amorin then underwent custodial debriefing at the said uni

“We are greatly honored to serve the people of Basilan in the time where peace reigns over conflicts. Rest assured that we will continue to exert more effort to sustain the peace and make it last,” said Col. Domingo Gobway, Commander of the Joint Task Force Basilan.

Since January 1, 2021, a total of 29 Abu Sayyaf Group members were neutralized in the WestMinCom area of operation, 2 of which were killed and 27 surrendered.

“This is, by far, a laudable accomplishment having so many surrendered ASG members in just two months,” said Lt. Gen. Vinluan, Jr.

“We are happy that our brothers who once lost their paths are finally getting back on the right track. Rest assured that we will assist them in their reintegration into the mainstream society,” the Commander added. (By JONG CADION with reports and photos from WestMinCom-PIO)
