Meanwhile, Philippines National Police Chief Ronald Dela Rosa ruled out the involvement of ISIS group in the incident.
“So far as we are concerned there was no ISIS,” said Dela Rosa.
“If this is ISIS, all the people gambling inside should have been shot or already been bombed. He didn’t hurt anyone and went straight to the casino chips storage room. Those who were injured got their injuries when they jumped from the windows,” he added.
