Ces Drilon and Crew Taken by the Abu Sayyaf
ABS-CBN’s Ces Drilon and two of her crew are missing after they were intercepted by members of the Abu Sayyaf in southern Philippines on Sunday. The other staff members are Jimmy Encarnacion and Angelo Valderama. Also with them was Octavio Dinampo, a professor at Mindanao State University. The professor was accompanying them to a meeting with the Abu Sayyaf.
The most recent updates report that the crew are alive and are being treated well.
I hope and pray for their safe return to their families.
