Additional warrants served on Ben Ahaddi Quirino, the ISIS affiliated ASG terrorist involved in the killings of Canadians Robert Hall and John Ridsdel in the Philippines.

Excellent reporting by @ZamYusa who has been following this story from the beginning👇

1. A surrendered Abu Sayyaf leader in custody for kidnapping and murder of Filipinos and foreigners has been served another warrant by @pnppio for similar offences.

My report for @akhbar.

Teamwork makes the dream work! 👊

Working with the news media you very quickly learn who you can trust! @ZamYusa has proven himself to be one of those professionals.

A positive outcome and great example of the power of #OSINT, #IntelligenceAnalysis, and #GreatJournalism

9. However, he resurfaced on Facebook with a wefie, which I promptly reported in a news piece with thanks to @iBRABO_com's help, causing Esscom to put him back on its wanted list.

Here is our original report on Bensito Quitino (alias: Bhen Tatuh, Boy Tattoo) and how we were able to track and build a picture of the group using their online content.

In 2018 iBrabo analysts @nicheIntel & @intelprof released an #OSINT report resulting in ISIS affiliated terrorist, Bensito Quitino, being put back on ESSCOM most wanted. Quitino was involved in the killing two Canadian tourists. This summer he surrendered to Philippine military.

For more on his surrender check out this article by @ZamYusa.

@RogersHelps Someone's not telling the truth...? #VastMajority are wondering why you're not publishing your outage map?

Let's just be clear here, any analyst worth their weight in geoprofiling/geolocation would be in a strong position to unmask the device owner with this kind of data.

So many unanswered questions here that need to be addressed! https://t.co/mGBxYDWihG

Mohammed Khalifa (Abu Ridwan Al-Kanadi), charged in the US in October, has pleaded guilty.

He provided “the narration and translation for approximately 15 videos created and distributed by ISIS.” https://t.co/qwy7VadCKn

Four Abu Sayyaf members including two high-profile ones surrendered to @TeamAFP
in Sulu.

One was involved in the kidnapping of German and Canadian nationals, another in the Sipadan kidnapping.

The AI enhancements thus provide us with the final image of the comedic trio!

Enhancing a B&W movie photo from 1984, while fun, also has relevance to some recent cold case work that iBRABO is working on.

Stay tuned 4 more!

Part of being a research based OSINT company means sometimes (a lot of the time) we get to do some pretty FUN things. Case in point our recent work with image colorization & enhancement AI apps.

We know the overalls are wrong!🤣

Just updated our #OSINT bible!! So many of the things we do here on a day to day basis are based on techniques our analysts learned through @IntelTechniques. Which makes this book and it's updates required reading!!

1. Two years ago, when we published our story on how ISIS governs, we made a promise to readers: We would find a way to make the more than 15,000 pages of internal ISIS records we found available to the general public. Today we made good on that promise: https://t.co/F9iPZKHIBq

@SecurityJourno @TheProcessLives @NicheIntel @Esscom_Times Should of messaged you but I think you were still off then.

[iBRABO @iBRABO_com]

@SecurityJourno @TheProcessLives @Facebook @NicheIntel @Esscom_Times @BenarNews @KKCity @JapenSabah @suarasabah @JapenKudat @satusabah Yes in the #ISEA pledge video. I'm sure there may be a few other notables in the group as well.

[iBRABO @iBRABO_com]

@SecurityJourno @TheProcessLives @Facebook @NicheIntel @Esscom_Times @BenarNews @KKCity @JapenSabah @suarasabah @JapenKudat @satusabah Actually, he did pop up last June to reaffirm his pledge to #ISIS. But haven't seen anything since then.

Last June when #ISEA members re-pledged their allegiance to #ISIS, iBRABO noted that Tattoh was featured prominently in the video. Despite surge efforts by the Philippine military and being on the most wanted list 3 times, efforts to capture or kill Tattoh have thus far failed.

[Zam Yusa @ZamYusa]

5. Ben Tattoh, responsible for beheading 2 Canadians, who went off radar after "his death" but later made it back on @Esscom_Times' 2019 wanted list because of my reporting below with help from @iBRABO_com, is again on the new list issued yesterday.

The Eastern Sabah Security Command (ESSCOM) again lists Ben Tattoh on its most wanted list. The current #ISIS member was responsible for the death of two Canadians in the Philippines in 2016. Since that time we have been monitoring #ISEA social media for information on Tattoh.
