Sawadjaan was tagged as mastermind of a church bombing in Sulu in Jan. 2019 that killed 22 and left more than 100 hurt. He was also tagged by the US Department of Defense the same year as "acting emir" or head of the Islamic State in the country. Two other daughters of Sawadjaan, identified as Isara, 36, and Jedah, 28, were arrested in another area in Patikul.
The remaining two, identified as Nudz and alias Dah, both of whom were married to an ASG member, were captured in Barangay Tulay in Jolo. Authorities confiscated from them a button switch, a 9V battery with a battery snap, a non-electric blasting cap, backpack, suspected detonating cord, 2.5 inches G.I. pipe, one hand grenade MK2 explosive, and a “rough sketch of their terror plan”, the military said.
