                    [Summary] => Police filed yesterday 52 counts of kidnapping with serious illegal detention and murder against a senior leader of the Abu Sayyaf terrorist group who was arrested recently in Zamboanga City.


This developed as the Armed Forces’ Southern Command (Southcom) turned over the suspect, Satar Yacub, to police authorities in Zamboanga City.

Yacub, also known as Abdullahjam Ngayah, was cited for his alleged participation in the March 20, 2000 abduction of 75 pupils, teachers and a Catholic priest in Barangay Tumuhubong in Sumisip town in the island province of Basilan.
