Great news on the BBC Website.
Their reporty Alan Johnston has been released by his abductors. It’s not clear exactly who did what to obtain his freedom, but Hamas is claiming a fair amount of credit.
In the Philippines, there is not much more news on Fr Bossi, except that the head of the Armed Forces of the Philippines has revealed that they have proof positive that he is alive.
General Hermogenes Esperon Jr., said Monday that they were able to acquire a “solid proof of life” and had established a connection with the kidnapped Italian priest.
There had been a news story that a group of concerned citizens had offered to negotiate on behalf of Fr Bossi. And they were challenged by the General that if they wanted to help they should obtain ‘proof of life’, who knows if this is it. Lets hope and pray that this ‘connection’ with Fr Bossi leads to his safe and peaceful release as in the case with Alan Johnston.
