Report of Janjalani in Sabah may be a false alarm
The latest Philippines claim that top Abu Sayyaf leader Khadaffy Janjalani and a group of about 20 followers had escaped into Sabah may be a false alarm. "We believe it is a false alarm. There is no indication showing that Janjalani and his group had entered Sabah," state's Fifth Infantry Brigade Brig Jen Mohd Shahrin Abdul Majid said yesterday. The latest claim came from Tawi Tawi governor Sadikul Sahali who claimed the leader of the Abu Sayaff with links to Jemaah Islamiah had "escaped to Mardanas and Mamanok islands in Malaysia" from Sibutu town in Tawi Tawi. Brig Jen Mohd Shahrin said security forces stayed on high alert against any intrusions.
