I te Mahuru 4, 2017, i kii te ope taua o Philippines kua mate a Maute i roto i te whakaeke rererangi i te Akuhata 7 2017 i te Pakanga o Marawi
He aha? I whakahuahia e ratou nga kaitautoko o ISIL e kii ana i tona matenga hei mahi martiritanga i runga i te papaaho pāpori Telegram. I whakahuatia ia ko "Sheik Al Miyahad Abu Al Hassan", he ingoa i mohiotia e whakamahia ana e ia i roto i te whatunga ISIL. I whakapumautia e te Tumuaki o te AFP Western Mindanao Command a Carlito Galvez Jr. te matenga o nga teina e whitu o Maute i te marama o Tihema 2017.
