MILF alleged behind abductions of 2 Chinese businessmen
Philippine security forces said that a Muslim rebel commander was behind Monday's abduction of two Chinese businessmen in southern Philippines.
First Infantry Division Spokesman Captain Albert Caber said on a local radio station that based on intelligence accounts, the incident was carried out by followers of Waning Abdusalam, a senior leader of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front's Special Operations Group. He said, "But as of this time, no group has acknowledged responsibility of the incident and there is still no ransom demands from the kidnappers."
Jampong Lin and James Lou, both engaged in mining business in China's Guangdong province, were kidnapped by gunmen on Monday night in Kabasalan. Six gunmen burst into the rented house of the victims and seized them at gunpoint. The suspects dragged them into a white van and fled.
