Share TweetBy Czarina Nicole Ong-KiMoro National Liberation Front (MNLF) founding chairman and former Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) Governor Nur Misuari is asking the Sandiganbayan Third Division to allow him to travel to Saudi Arabia from May to June. In his amended motion to travel, Misuari said that his intended travel will be for the pilgrimage to the holy land of Mecca, where he will fast in the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, both in Saudi Arabia. “That he is most desirous of further strengthening his faith by attending the holy activity which he considers to be obligatory,” it added. Misuari is facing two graft and two malversation through falsification charges in relation to the reportedly anomalous purchase of different educational packages and materials from 2000 to 2001.
