Ahmed Santos (born Hilarion del Rosario Santos III[2]) is a Filipino who converted to Islam while working in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in 1991.[3][4][5] Santos was captured by Military officials for being involved in organizing and planning terrorist activities, including preparation of bombs.[6] He is the founder of the Rajah Solaiman Movement.[7]

Association with terrorism[edit]

Santos was detained in October 2005, for taking part in planning bomb attacks in predominantly Christian cities around the Philippines.[7] According to police officials, the Rajah Solaiman group founded by Santos after his conversion to Islam, is believed to have forged an alliance with two Islamist organisations - the ISIL-affiliated Abu Sayyaf and the al-Qaida-affiliated Jemaah Islamiah.[7] Explosives were seized from Santos's room by police on March 26, 2004. .[8] A reward of $500,000 was presented to two Filipino citizens for providing key information that lead to the arrest of Santos.[9]
