Hostage Demands Issued by Abu Sayyaf in Sulu Island
Associated Press writes that Abu Sayyaf extremists issued written demands for the release of 21 hostages on Sulu, including foreign tourists, while a journalist reports the captives are kept in a small hut in squalid conditions and fed poorly. Troops on Basilan fail to locate a separate group of 27 hostages held for six weeks.
