MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Elections (Comelec) is likely to place the province of Sulu under its control or among areas of concern following the ambush of its official from Sulu in Zamboanga City.
Speaking in Filipino, Comelec Chairman George Garcia said that if there was that kind of violence, it was possible that Sulu could be placed “underComelec control” or consider the province an “area of concern.”
