The Philippine National Police concluded that a cellphone was used to trigger the improvised explosive device that was used to bomb Davao City last friday. Reports said that PNP recovered pieces of 60mm mortar round on the bodies of the victims. These pieces are the fragments of the improvised explosive used in the blast.
PNP is on hunt against 3 persons suspected to be responsible of the incident. Artist sketch is now being processed with the aid of witnesses from the incident, but as of now, leads to them are empty.
Possible diversion from Abu Sayyaf is being observed following intensified operation against them.
"That us what we are suspecting, to ease up the pressure that they have been experiencing in Sulu and Basilan right now. This might be a diversionary tactic to ease up the pressure from them; that we will be diverted from being offinsive. They want us to become defensive", Gen. Dela Rosa says.
Meanwhile, PNP assures that justice will be served to the victims if citizens would cooperate with them.
