MANILA, Feb. 4 (Xinhua) -- A main suspect of the deadly twin blasts hitting the southern Philippines late last month has surrendered to authorities, the chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) said on Monday.
PNP Chief Director General Oscar Albayalde said the suspect, identified only as Kamah, denied involvement in the church bombings that killed 22 and injured more than 100 others on Jan. 27 in Jolo in southern Sulu province.
Albayalde said Kamah, a student, turned himself in along with four others over the weekend in Jolo.
The police claimed that Kamah, an alleged member of the Abu Sayyaf's Ajang-Ajang sub-group, was seen near the church before the explosions.
Four other "suspects" in the blasts who were spotted on a street surveillance camera also came forward last week to deny the allegations. They were all cleared by the police.
No one was arrested in connection with the deadly twin blasts yet.
