13 Sulu gunmen confirmed killed, says Mindef


LAHAD DATU - Thirteen bodies of Filipino militants have been found after the authorities launched air strikes at the 200-strong Sulu group hiding in a village here yesterday, Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said today.

The defence minister showed the media two pictures of several corpses dressed in dark blue, lying face down in a heap of dirt, saying that copies of the pictures would be distributed to the press later.

“This is a picture of a grave where the bodies were buried by the terrorists,” said Ahmad Zahid, showing a picture of wooden planks placed over the ground.

He added that the forensic police were shot at this afternoon while they were looking at the bodies, but said that they were not wounded.
