Commander Robot Still Captured
Itâs the Phillipines, youâve got to make sure. EFL:Galib Andang, popularly known as Commander Robot, was caught after a gun battle between the rebels and the military on Sunday in southern Jolo island following a public tip-off as to his whereabouts. After Mr Andang was transported to the southern city of Zamboanga, he was reported to have been verbally abused by a crowd of onlookers, and even attacked by one of his former kidnap victims. "Take that!" "WACK" "Ouch!" He was given treatment at Zamboanga airbase for treatment to wounds sustained during the gun fight. He had been shot in both legs. Thatâll make running away difficult. Philippines President Gloria Arroyo hailed his capture as "another heavy blow to the Abu Sayyaf". He was due to be taken to Manila on Monday, where he faces charges punishable by death. Thatâs right, Gloria reinstated the death penalty. Should come in handy. Posted by: Steve 2003-12-08 |
