Terrorists kill 2 cops in Northern Cotabato
2006-08-11
TWO policemen were killed by suspected members of the Jemaah Islamiyah terrorist group in an area controlled by the Moro Islamic Liberation Front in North Cotabato, the group said in a statement. Abdul Dataya, chairman of the MILF ad hoc joint action group, said Insp. Marlon Frilles and PO1 Binggo Utto, members of the Special Action Force's Rapid Deployment Co., were shot and killed by JI fighters while attempting to serve an arrest warrant on Indonesian national Adulhir bin Hir alias Marwan in Barangay Balong in Pikit town at 1:35 a.m., Thursday.

Marwan is a suspected financier of the Islamic militants based in Mindanao. Frilles and Utto were killed in a firefight that lasted 30 minutes, Dataya said. "MILF fighters were not responsible for the killing of the two cops," he said.
