Indonesisk sømand svømmer sig til frihed

En sømand fra en indonesisk bugserbåd, der blevet kapret af Abu Sayyaf terrorister i det sydlige Filippinerne den 23. juni, er undsluppet ved at springe over bord og svømme i land. Sømanden var blevet truet med halshugning.

”Vi fik at vide, at han formåede at flygte ved at kaste sig i havet og svømme væk. Vi har ingen oplysninger om de andre fanger, men tropper i området blev beordret til at bruge alle midler for at lokalisere og redde gidslerne”, siger en talsmand for hæren.

Mohammad Safyan, 28, og seks andre besætningsmedlemmer fra slæbebåden Charles blev bortført i Sulu Havet og bragt til øen Jolo. Safyan menes at have undsluppet sammen med en anden sømand om natten, da hans bortførere truede med at henrette ham. Den andens skæbne er ukendt.

Abu Sayyafs angreb har været rettet mod mindre skibe, som passerer Sulu - og Celebeshavet. Krav om løsepenge for besætningsmedlemmer er et voksende problem. Det har fået Malaysia, Filippinerne og Indonesien til at indsætte flere patruljefartøjer i området.
