ZAMBOANGA CITY -- Abductors, believed to be members of the al-Qaeda-linked Abu Sayyaf group, are demanding a P5 million ransom in exchange for the safe release of the six construction workers and a fish-drier-laborer they seized in the hinterland of Sulu.

The six workers, who are employed with the construction firm of Sulu Governor Benjamin Loong, were seized around 9 a.m. on Monday in the town of Parang by the group of Albader Parad, a mid-level Abu Sayyaf leader.
