PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak yesterday issued an ultimatum to the armed intruders in Sabah to surrender or face action by the Malaysian authorities.
The prime minister said the time had lapsed to consider the demands of the intruders who claim to be members of the royal army of the Sultanate of Sulu in the Philippines.
The Malaysian government was firm in the matter because the crime committed by them was most serious, he told reporters after paying his last respects to the two slain police commandos at the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) base in Subang near here.
The commandos were killed in a gun battle with the intruders in Kampung Tanduo, 130km from Lahad Datu, Friday. Twelve of the intruders were also killed in the shootout.
“I telephoned President Benigno Aquino III of the Philippines last night (Friday) to state the stand of the Malaysian government on the matter after the gun battle yesterday.
