At least five alleged members of a local terrorist group have returned to the folds of the law in Maguindanao del Sur.
The five alleged members of the Dawlah Islamiyah-Hassan Group (DI-HG) surrendered to the headquarters of the 90th Infantry Battalion in Barangay Kabengi, Datu Saudi Ampatuan.
They also turned over their high-powered firearms.
The local government also gave them cash assistance, sacks of rice, agricultural products, and a motorcycle.
The military said the surrender was a result of the Mobile Community Support Sustainment Program that aims to convince the members of the local terrorist group to lay down their arms and surrender.
