Rebels free Americans after 1 day kidnapping
Ninety to 29 peaceful activists from Witness for Peace including two Syracuse nuns were freed after a one day captivity on a remote San Juan River site near the Nicaragua Costa Rica border. The group unharmed boarded a rented boat and began upriver toward Managua as Costa Rican guards guided the craft to Las Tiridas. Death threats prompted one member to withdraw earlier, with a Thanksgiving service planned for nun Kathleen Kennedy after her release.
