Sajid and Naveed Akram, who police say were inspired by Islamic State, left the Philippines island of Mindanao on November 28. The island is the heart of an Islamic insurgency affiliated with ISIS.

The father and son allegedly behind one of Australia’s deadliest mass shootings spent nearly the entire month of November in the Philippines, with the father entering as an ‘Indian national’.
