According to the report, a notorious criminal was killed while four soldiers were wounded in a clash during an operation in the hinterlands of Sulu, the military said Sunday. Col. Leonardo Peña, the Army’s 11th Infantry Division commander, identified the fatality as Alganer Dahim, alias “Wangbu,” the second most wanted person in Sulu.

Peña said Dahim was slain in a clash with joint military, police, and Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) agents in Barangay Kapok Punggol, Maimbung on Saturday.

The report added that the four wounded soldiers belong to the Army’s 41st Infantry Battalion. They sustained grenade shrapnel wounds and were brought to Camp Bautista Station Hospital in the capital, Jolo.

Peña said Dahim was involved in large-scale illegal drug operations in the municipalities of Parang, Indanan, and Maimbung.

The slain was also linked to the May 2009 killing of then-Sulu police director Col. Julasirim Kasim in Maimbung and the murder of three Amil family members in Barangay Labah of the same municipality several years ago. The troops recovered ammunition and other war materiel from the clash site.

It's a tough situation, but it seems like the military and law enforcement are making significant strides in tackling organized crime in Sulu. The fact that a high-profile criminal like Alganer Dahim was involved in multiple notorious crimes, including large-scale drug operations and killings, makes this operation quite important for public safety. It's unfortunate that four soldiers got injured in the process, but their bravery in confronting these dangerous elements speaks volumes about the risks they face daily. Hopefully, the recovery of ammunition and war materials will help authorities further dismantle these criminal networks.

That criminal was wanted in the Philippines, and finally, he was tracked by the authorities in Julu, Sulu. This place is facing the Pacific Ocean.
