A Moroccan national is said to be behind the deadly blast in Lamitan City, Basilan Tuesday that resulted to the death of 10 people.
Authorities identified the foreign terrorist as Abu Kathir al-Maghribi.
The military meanwhile admitted Wednesday that they have persistent reports that point to the Abu Sayyaf as the group responsible to the IED explosion in Lamitan City.
It was said that the ASG’s demand for P50,000 in extortion money was refused by local government thus the possible retaliation by the terror group.
