Lt. Gen. Roy Kyamko, chief of the Armed Forces’ Southern Command, said the abductors of Ramon Enoferio abandoned him after they sensed that the government troopers were nearing their lair in Barangay Maligay.
Enoferio was snatched near his house in Barangay Kasanyangan in the capital town of Jolo. He was believed to have been turned over to the Abu Say—yaf group led by Radulan Sahiron. — Roel Pareño, Jaime Laude
