The Philippines Government has tagged the Indonesia-based Jemaah Islamiyah, the local Abu Sayyaf, and a breakaway faction of the rebel Moro Islamic Liberation Front as the perpetrators behind recent explosions in the southern Philippines.
The bombings happened just days ahead of the twin summits of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations or ASEAN, and its East Asia dialogue partners.
Our report in Manila, Shirley Escalante, says a former member of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front is thought to have been behind two of the three explosions in the south.
The suspect was Abdul Basset Usman, who reportedly had ties with the Jemaah Islamiyyah.
Investigators found one of the bombs was an 81 millimetre mortar, a signature of the Abu Sayyaf and the J-I.
Seven people died and more than 40 others were injured in the explosions.
