The US Treasury Department has designated the Rajah Solaiman Movement and its leader, Angelo Ramirez Trinidad, as Specially Designated Global Terrorists for assisting al Qaeda affiliate Abu Sayyaf in conducting numerous terror attacks in the Philippines. Members of the group were involved in the Super Ferry 14 bombing in February 2004 and the Valentine’s Day bombings in February 2005.
