1 more suspect in 'Maguindanao massacre' nabbed
MAGUINDANAO, Philippines --- Government operatives arrested on Sunday another suspect in the November 23, 2009 “Maguindanao Massacre†in Mamasapano town in the province.
The suspect, Khominie Inggo, voluntarily turned himself in when he sensed that combined agents of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group and the Maguindanao provincial police office, and Army combatants had surrounded his hideout in Barangay Manongcaling in Mamasapano.
Inggo, who yielded an unlicensed M-14 assault rifle, carried a P250,000 bounty on his head. He was a former member of the private militia of the Ampatuan clan.
Inggo was arrested with the help of barangay officials, who provided the police and the Army’s 1st Mechanized Brigade and 45th Infantry Battalion information on his whereabouts, leading them to his hideout located in a rice farm in Barangay Manongcaling.
Inggo is now in the custody of the CIDG’s regional office in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
