Ces Drilon and 2 Others Released by Kidnappers



Have you heard the news? Apparently kidnapped television reporter Ces Drilon, cameraman Jimmy Encarnacion and Mindanao State University professor Octavio Dinampo were freed late Tuesday night 11pm, nine days after they were abducted in Sulu province.

All three captives were debriefed in Zamboanga City before they are flown back to Manila.

Ces Drilon had press release almost immediately after that with puffy eyes and mosquito-bitten face was all over the news just crying for justice and stuff like that. Broadcasting all over the news how she was threatened with beheading. That must have been a terrible ordeal though, I sympathize with her. Nobody should have to go through torment like that.

President Arroyo has already declared a man-hunt for the kidnappers, suspected to be Abu Sayyaf and aligned with Al Quaeda.

Well, looks like everyone will have to be a little more careful
