Summary
The battle left the city in ruins and some 1,200 people dead, including Mr. Hapilon.Last year, Abu Sayyaf detonated a car bomb at a police checkpoint on the southern island of Basilan, killing 10 people.The failure of the referendum on Monday in Jolo, a predominantly Muslim area, had raised fears of reprisals by militant groups.
