The NBI arrested Marawi City Vice Mayor Annouar Abdulrauf over a 2013 murder case, ending years of evasion under a false identity. Supporters attempted to block the arrest outside Marawi City Hall but were unsuccessful. Witnesses accused Abdulrauf of involvement in the killing of an NBI operative, and evidence linked him to the crime despite his efforts to hide. Abdulrauf, now on his second term, will remain in custody as the trial proceeds.
