This must stop.! ISIS in Philippines Vows to Behead Another Westerner on June 13

ISIS in Philippines Vows to Behead Another Westerner on June 13.

An unconfirmed report had suggested the Indonesians were released after the government paid a ransom of 100 million Peso ($2.15 million) to the Abu Sayyaf.
All the captives together with Ridsdel were abducted by the terrorists in August past year in a beach resort on Samal Island and took them to Sulu. In March, Abu Sayyaf set a one-month deadline in another video threat, then released a final 10-day warning in mid April, setting April 25 as the last date to receive a ransom payment before a hostage would be killed.

The four hostages were abducted on September 21 from the southern resort island of Samal, less than half an hour away from Davao City by ferry.

"The Government's first priority is the safety and security of its citizens and therefore we will not comment or release any information which may compromise ongoing efforts or endanger the safety of the remaining hostages", she said in an emailed statement. In the video, Hall appeals to the Canadian and Philippine governments to help. Designated a terrorist organization by the Philippines, the United States and the United Nations, the group of several hundred militants has pledged allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The Armed Forces of the Philippines said that while they have yet to see the video, their operations have not stopped.

"There has to be a reckoning somehow", Duterte said.

The countdown was announced in a YouTube video by two surviving hostages held by Abu Sayyaf.

Trudeau also said his government will work with the government of the Philippines and global partners to pursue those responsible for the "heinous act".
The RCMP is conducting a criminal investigation into Ridsdel's murder in the Philippines.

"If you resist, show violent resistance, my order to police (will be) to shoot to kill". You heard that? Shoot to kill for every organised crime, ' the 71-year-old mayor said in Davao City.

'It's just like switching off a light, ' he said of hanging. (The convict) does not feel anything.

Electrocution is also expensive because the government would have to pay for the power used in the killing, he added, noting, 'I'm going to kill a bad person and you still want me to spend money?'.
