Haitian Criminal Gang Frees Two of 17 North American Missionaries Held Hostage
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Haiti, two of the 17 North American missionary hostages taken in
October, have been released. Few other details are known but the
Christian Aid Ministries says the two freed members are healthy and
safe. A Haitian gang claimed responsibility for the kidnap and had
threatened to kill the hostages if their ransom was not paid.
