The New York Times
A gang abducted 17 people associated with a Christian aid group, including five children. Most of those being held are Americans; one is Canadian.
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — A million dollars a head.
That is the demand from kidnappers in Haiti who seized 17 people tied to Christian Aid Ministries, a U.S.-based missionary group, over the weekend, a Haitian official said Tuesday.
“The demand was made to the country chief of the Christian Aid Ministries,” Justice Minister Liszt Quitel said in a phone interview.
