Death toll in Mamasapano carnage now at 49 - ARMM police



MANILA – The death toll in Sunday's clash between policemen and members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Force (MILF) is now at 49, a local police official said.

Senior Superintendent Noel Armilla, Philippine National Police officer-in-charge for the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), said he still has no information how many among the 49 fatalities were policemen and MILF members.

Armilla said at least 11 were wounded.

He could also not confirm whether a civilian was killed in Sunday's bloodshed.

Earlier reports put the death toll among members of the PNP Special Action Force and MILF at 30 and 4, respectively.

The clash between the MILF members and the elite cops occurred as the latter were supposed to arrest Malaysian bomb maker Zulkifli bin Hir alias ''Marwan'' and Basit Usman, a Jemaah Islamiyah bomb-making expert, in Tukanalipao village.

The MILF, however, said the bloody clash erupted due to the lack of coordination between the police and the proper governing bodies.

Speaking to dzMM, Iqbal said the police personnel should have first coordinated with the Ceasefire Committee on the Cessation of Hostilities (CCCH) and the Ad Hoc Joint Action Group (AHJAG) before conducting their operation in the MILF-controlled area.

According to Armilla, the PNP SAF informed the ARMM Police about the operation at around 4:30 a.m. Sunday, but he noted that the gun battle erupted at around 3 a.m. that day.

Police have already retrieved 29 of the bodies of the slain policemen.

Bangsamoro Basic Law

Sunday's clash threatens to stall the progress in the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law, a product of the peace talks between the government and the MILF.

Senator Ferdinand ''Bongbong'' Marcos Jr., chair of the Senate Committee on Local Government, earlier ordered the temporary suspension of all discussions and hearings related to the passage of the law following the Sunday clash.

Muntinlupa Rep. Rodolfo Biazon, chair of the defense committee at the lower house, has also asked the ad hoc committee on the Bangsamoro to suspend deliberations on the proposed law pending the submission of reports on the latest skirmishes in Mindanao.

Top officials from both the government and the MILF said the deadly clashes should not delay proceedings for the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law.

“It is not logical for anybody to delay the process of making the BBL into law because it will be disadvantageous to all parties concerned,” MILF vice chairman for political Affairs Ghadzali Jaafar told reporters.

In a separate press release, government chief negotiator Miriam Coronel-Ferrer said the Philippines’ resolve to push for the creation of a Bangsamoro political entity is further strengthened.

“This incident and other recent acts of violence by other armed groups manifest the diverse security challenges that confound the peace process. But our resolve to see through the process of legislating the Bangsamoro Basic Law and implementing the different Normalization programs, including the security components, is only further strengthened. With better cooperation we will be able to prevent these kinds of incidents,” she said. - with a report from Edwin Sevidal, dzMM

oo nga tapos nanahimik ang mga mulo nuon sa takot dahil sa ginawa ni presidente erap. kayo walang bayag ang pangulong penoy ne kaya wala tayo magagawa kung di tanggapin ang kahihiyan sa mga muklo at tayo ngayon ay kanilang pinag tatawanan sa mga kagaguhan at kawalang hiyaang ginawa nila sa mga kapulisan natin.

RIP to the fallen and condolences to their families.

From what I've read, the PNP did not coordinate the operation with the AFP's local commanders and walked into an ambush. I guess they were right in the kill zone, that's why so many SAF personnel died and minimal casualties from the MILF/BIFF.

I don't really the understand the coordination crap MILF is talking about. So PNP to MILF "we are gonna arrest your terrorist guest, please prepare for our arrival" pwede ba yun?

And what the hell a terrorist doing in the MILF controlled area?

They can't have it both ways, talking peace while killing officers. And now they're saying serving an arrest warrant w/o coordinating with them is a violation of the peace process? So what do they call killing 50 SAF personnel?

di pa taga dun yung mga pulis, taga gensan. nagka-interest daw dun sa $5million na reward kaya di na nakipag-coordinate kahit sa army.

pero bakit yung JI e tumatakbo papunta sa kuta ng milf? yun ang tanong. safe haven?

kapal ng mukha mo alamin mo muna ang batas bago ka magsasatsat

under u.s. federal law no foreign government employee is allowed to receive any reward money in the performance of their duty.

the reward money is only for civillians

happy na naman ang mga network yan. may pang headline na muli sila. naging emotional pala si sec roxas sa maraming namatayan. ang galing magturo si korina sanchez sa mala emote effect. ang girl newscaster na di pantay ang kulay ng face sa mga kamay nya. Haha

[Syuryuken]

ipunin nyo na nga yung mga dugo ng baboy at ibagsak natin sa mga kuta ng mga hayop na yan

if there's a US$5M reward for this terrorist, it means he's on top of the heap. kaya US nag head ng raid, kaya walang coordination with MILF not that it should be needed. we know US can't directly engage with local bandits but they can provide intelligence and logistic support.

katakot-takot na cover up ito, mga US servicemen andoon tumutulong sa pag evacuate ng mga wounded.

You can't talk peace with these people, traydor mga yan!

agree.
magsi-serve ng warrant, kelangan pa coordination w/ MILF?

eh baka may "tsu-tsu" within the group, makatakbo pa si marwan, bago mai-serve yung warrant.

49 dead from a "misencounter", at an area where suspected terrorists are hiding.

Coincidence?
