Australian Kidnapped in Mindanao
There is a news black out so only a few newspapers are following this story.
I figured I would post this to remind people to be careful when traveling in parts of our country.
Kidnapped Australian national Warren Richard Rodwell had been briefed about possible security risks as soon as he arrived in Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay, and had been offered security protection but he allegedly turned it down.
WarrenRodwell said he was a retired member of the Australian Army, told authorities he could well protect himself.
“He told us then that he’d fight back in case he encountered security problems,”
Of course there may be foul play by his wife which he separated from. Many times those responsible for the kidnapping of of foreigners in the Philippines were found to be relatives or jilted boyfriends of the kidnap victim's Filipino girlfriend or wife.
