Abu Sayyaf chieftain Khadaffy Janjalani and his two Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) terrorist allies have reportedly slipped through a military dragnet in Sulu and are now in Basilan, a military source told The STAR yesterday. Janjalani and about 80 of his followers are in Sumisip town en route to Punong Mujahid town, the source said. Janjalani was reportedly able to escape a massive military offensive in Sulu with help from Abu Sayyaf senior leaders Isnilon Hapilon and a certain Solaiman. "Khadaffy Janjalani, Umar Patek and Dulmatin are already in Basilan. They arrived from Jolo only yesterday with more or less 80 followers," the source said. The STAR tried unsuccessfully to get an immediate comment from military officials. Earlier this month, troops in Sulu launched an offensive to flush Janjalani and his two Jemaah Islamiyah allies out of the jungle. Among the JI members believed to be hiding in Sulu are Dulmatin, who goes by one name, and Umar Patek, both wanted for the 2002 bombings in Bali, Indonesia that killed 202 people, mostly foreign tourists.
