THE MILITARY is on the hunt for at least 10 Abu Sayyaf members in Metro Manila who have "laid low" after two of their peers were arrested for allegedly bombing a bus in Makati City last Valentine's Day, an official said. But Lieutenant General Allan Cabalquinto, chief of the military's National Capital Region Command (NCRCom), assured the public that security measures were in place to prevent future attacks. "This is not a big group. We are monitoring their possible hiding places," Cabalquinto told reporters in Camp Aguinaldo.When asked what the bandits were planning, Cabalquinto said: "They are lying low but we can't erase the suspicion that they're up to something." Cabalquinto said a Marine battalion was deployed to help Metro Manila police guard malls, hotels, and transport terminals. "We are more concerned right now in seeing to it that population is well informed so as not to cause panic," he said.
