MANILA, Philippines — Officials in the Philippines say police have rescued a Red Cross worker from his al-Qaeda- linked kidnappers three months after he and two colleagues were kidnapped on a southern island.
Press Secretary Cerge Remonde said that according to “verified reports,” Andreas Notter from Switzerland was rescued in Indanan township on Jolo island early today.
Sulu provincial police chief Jlasirim Kasim says police and civilian volunteers in Indanan rescued Notter from militants who were trying to breach a security cordon around their stronghold.
