\u2018Mujahideens\u2019 behind Lanao attacks – Commander Bravo
\n08\/20\/2008 | 11:33 AM
\n(Update) MANILA, Philippines \u2014 Amid threats of disciplinary action from the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) leadership, a rebel commander on Wednesday disowned last Monday\u2019s deadly attacks in Lanao del Norte province and said \u201cmujahideens” fighting for \u201cAllah” (God) were responsible.
\n\u201cWala kaming alam diyan sa atake sa Lanao del Norte. Narito kami sa kampo. (We have nothing to do with those attacks in Lanao del Norte. We were inside our camp),” Abdullah Macapaar said in an interview with Radio Mindanao Network.
\nCommander Bravo, as Macapaar is better known, is the commander of the MILF\u2019s 102nd Base Command, the unit blamed for simultaneous attacks in the towns of Kolambugan, Maigo and Kauswagan last Monday, resulting in the deaths of 36 people including three soldiers.
\nWhile denying that his men were responsible, Bravo justified the role the \u201cmujahideens” played.
\n\u201cAng mga mujahideen ang may gawa niyan, \u2018yun sundalo ng Allah. Ang sinusunod nila ay ang talagang kautusan ng Panginoon Allah. (It was the mujahideens, God\u2019s warriors, who were responsible. They only follow the will of Almighty God),” he said.
\nAt the same time, Bravo warned that his group would not stand idly by and to answer fire with fire should government forces decide to attack MILF positions.
\n\u201cKung dumating ang mga sundalo dito (sa kampo namin), handa kaming makipag-barilan hanggang maubos kami at kung hindi nila kami maubos ay uubusin namin sila. Walang ng usapan hanggat hindi ibinibigay sa amin ang Islamic justice sa Mindanao,” he said.
\nMILF high officials earlier denounced the attacks on civilian targets in Lanao del Norte and other parts of Mindanao last Monday and said these were not authorized by the group\u2019s central committee.
\nMILF spokesman Eid Kabalu, who was interviewed by RMN after Bravo, said the attacks are now being investigated by the joint government and MILF ceasefire panels, and that appropriate punishments await whoever was responsible.
\nLt. Col. Ernesto Torres Jr., Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) spokesman, expressed disbelief over Bravo\u2019s denials.
\n\u201cJust this morning, there was condemnation coming from the MILF leadership of what Kato and Bravo did. So it\u2019s not only the AFP and PNP who are saying these two commanders were responsible for the attacks,” he said in a separate interview.
\nUmbra Kato is the MILF commander whose unit was blamed for attacks on civilian targets in North Cotabato province last week.
\nOn Bravo\u2019s statement that they are ready to fight to the last man, Torres said: \u201cWell it\u2019s up to them. We will pursue them to punish them for their criminal acts.” – GMANews.TV<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
