Sahil Released Some Good New's

[Less]

Well it makes a change from a child being parted from it's parents forever, what a relief it must be for them.

BBC News - Sahil Saeed's mother hails 'amazing' Pakistan release

Im glad hes been released .. im listening to the radio tonight .. seems that a ransom was paid .. and theres been arrests in spain .. the kidnap was organised there!!!

strange one this to me, whilst glad the child is safe, sends a great message out to all potential kidnappers.

I reckon when it's money these animals want then there should be an arrangement made.. after all it's only money and when it has changed hands there is plenty of scope to track down and catch them.
Maybe I'm out of touch but I think there are at least 2 brits being held hostage for ransome.. financial ransome is alot different to people being held for political ransome.

They must have been a bit thick, when the ransom was paid the police followed them waited for the little lad to be released then went in and arrested three men and retrieved the money

yep..and I'd say the ones who kidnap for money must be thick and there is a good chance of catching them when money changes hand.. if it's money these people want then give it to them and track them down after the event.

see its not all bad for the kidnappers

All well & good the Lad is coming back to his family, but look at the effort & involvement in this case ! If it can be done for one young Lad, what about the rest of our people in similar situations ? And what will be the results & punishment of the perpetrators, that I'm looking forward to seeing.

I don't know but something doesn't seem to be sitting right here !

Allegedly, according to one report I read, there had been marital problems and the husband took his wife's passport with him - why would he do that except to ensure that she could not go to Pakistan?
It all seems a bit strange and gets even more strange with each further bit of information that is released to the public

'Police in Pakistan traced the call made to Raja Naqqash Saeed to a British telephone number, providing the first concrete evidence that Sahil's 13-day ordeal may have been masterminded in this country.'
