Pinoy, Malaysian abducted in Borneo

Two men—a Malaysian and a Filipino—were abducted on Monday off the coast of Borneo island by a pair of sea-borne gunmen, a police official said, despite heavy security in the area after a spate of kidnappings.

“Two armed gunmen abducted two people from an open-sea fish farm. They were taken away in a boat,” said Omar Mammah, head of criminal investigations for the Malaysian state of Sabah, told Agence France-Presse.
