Pirates free 10 abducted fishermen in Nigeria, ransom paid

07 Mar 2021  |  680news.com
Ten foreign fishermen abducted by pirates in Gabon were rescued in Rivers State, Nigeria, after a $300,000 ransom was paid. The hostages, including six Chinese, three Indonesians, and one Gabonese, were kidnapped on February 7. Kidnapping for ransom is increasingly common in Nigeria, with recent incidents involving schoolgirls and schoolboys. Nigerian security forces are investigating the bandits, with a curfew and no-fly zone imposed in Zamfara State. Intelligence specialist Laith Alkhouri warns that paying ransoms fuels criminal activity and advises proactive measures to prevent hostage-taking.
