CEBU CITY, Philippines - They holed up inside a mountain cottage for five days in Carmen town, starting Holy Thursday to wait for the “end of the world.”
Members of the Dios Amahan cult, who brought their children along to await the “final judgment,” had to be pulled out of the house by policemen on Tuesday, ending almost a day of negotiation.
At least 24 persons, 10 of them children, were rescued.
A worried father, accompanied by policemen, came to rescue his children, especially his one-year-old son, after his wife, the leader of the cult, refused to release them.
