Mr Lee Posted July 17, 2011 Author Posted July 17, 2011 Update on this story. 2 kidnapped Americans allowed to talk to family. Interestingly according to the story the lady was born as a Muslim and then adopted by an American family. So it seems now, that those terrorist just care about money. Very sad state of affairs that the govt cannot get those terrorists once and for all.Suspected Abu Sayyaf militants holding an American woman and her son in the southern Philippines allowed them to talk briefly to their family in the United States as proof they were alive and to press a ransom demand, two security officials said Sunday. The cellphone call to the U.S. was traced from southern Basilan province, where Abu Sayyaf gunmen were suspected to have brought Philippine-born U.S. citizen Gerfa Yeatts Lunsmann, her 14-year-old son and 19-year-old Filipino nephew after seizing them at gunpoint Tuesday from a nearby island village, the two senior Philippine officials said.
