Armed Forces chief Gen. Hermogenes Esperon Jr. on Thursday confirmed reports that a Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) operative wanted for the 2002 deadly bombing in Bali, Indonesia was injured in an encounter with Army troops last August 9 in Sulu province.Esperon said the military has received reliable information confirming that Indonesian terror suspect Dulmatin sustained injuries after fighting alongside Abu Sayyaf members against government troops in Maimbung town.
Aside from Dulmatin, the military also believes that Abu Sayyaf sub-leader Doc Abu was wounded while his son was killed in the encounter.
Dulmatin is a 32-year-old Indonesian electronics expert suspected of triggering the bomb that killed over 200 people on Indonesia's resort island of Bali in 2002.
Authorities believe Dulmatin is hiding in Sulu with another JI senior member, Umar Patek.
Dulmatin has so far been able to avoid the military and police who have been hunting him and Patek.
if we have sricter penalties for animal cruelty, Dulmatins, pit bulls, and all other dogs will be able to live without fear of these jerks hurting them.
Too bad.
Too bad he wasn’t killed!!
