COTABATO CITY: The government agencies under the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) will introduce an intervention package for former Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) terrorists who surrendered recently to determine appropriate solutions to the Islamic militancy without blood shed and destruction.

At least 21 hardcore bandits, who admitted to having participated in deadly harassments of non-military targets and roadside bombings in the past years, surrendered through the Army’s 64th Infantry Battalion (IB) and Mayor Gulam Hataman of Sumisip town in Basilan.
