KORONADAL CITY – Police arrested an alleged member of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) facing murder charges in Barangay Apopong, Gen. Santos City, Thursday afternoon.
In a statement Friday, Brig. Gen. Jimili Macaraeg, police regional director for the Soccsksargen region, identified the suspect as Wahab Tacbil (alias Commander Bravo Dats), who claimed to be an MILF member residing in Palimbang town, Sultan Kudarat province.
Tacbil did not resist arrest when authorities presented him with two warrants of arrest issued by the Gen. Santos City Regional Trial Court.
Police records showed that Tacbil has been tagged in various crimes in Palimbang that included murder, frustrated murder, and frustrated multiple murder charges.
"This significant development brings hope for justice and closure to the victims' families, as the individual responsible for this appalling act will now face legal consequences for his actions,” Macaraeg said. (PNA)
