He said security forces had come to this conclusion after vetting through information received and intelligence.
"Azzimudie has abandoned his men and fled to his homeland," Zulkifeli said in a joint media conference here with Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar late Friday.
Ismail said feedback from security forces commanders on the ground had also indicated that Azzimudie was no longer with his men.
