Police search for abducted woman in Zamboanga City

ZAMBOANGA CITY (Mindanao Examiner / Feb. 20, 2014) – Police continue to search for a 28-year old woman abducted by gunmen in Zamboanga City in southern Philippines.

Sabrina Ikbala Voon was taken by armed men, some of them clad in police uniform, from her house at Pohoc Drive in the village of Mercedes and dragged her to a white van which was later recovered on a neighboring village by pursuing policemen.

The van’s owner Ignacio Curambao has surfaced to deny any links to the abduction and told police that a man had rented the van from their company in Zamboanga. Curambao’s shop also surrendered to authorities the man’s driver’s license.

“I don’t know anything about the man except that he has previously rented a car from our company,” he said.

Chief Inspector Ariel Huesca, a regional police spokesman, said police and military forces were searching for the woman. Citing reports in the area, Huesca said six gunmen, who speak in Tausug dialect, were involved in the abduction.

No individual or group claimed responsibility for the abduction, but authorities had previously blamed kidnapping cases to the Abu Sayyaf group.

The woman’s family has appealed to her abductors to free the victim. (Mindanao Examiner)
