I think the security agents are closing in on the kidnappers.

One was detained yesterday and the other two on Monday. I think we are closing in on them, we are closing in on the kidnappers.

The community leaders brought them to us and we’re happy they’ve been freed.

We’re stepping up negotiation with their captors so that they can be off the hook imminently.

We are working seriously at this and we should be able to achieve our desire.

We believe that very, very soon we should be able to reach the hostage takers. We’ve put in place a very powerful committee.

(The three) are in very good health and high spirits.

I think they plan to release them in batches.
