problem’ snags
nego for Bossi’s release |
|
By Anthony Vargas, Reporter
NEGOTIATIONS for the release of
abducted Italian priest Fr. Giancarlo Bossi got snagged by “an
internal problem” Tuesday as the military command dispatched elite
troops to track down the kidnappers in Central Mindanao.
Maj. Gen. Ben Mohammad Dolorfino
said the snag was an “internal problem” within the Moro Islamic
Liberation Front (MILF). The latter has been working with the
government military to rescue Father Bossi and is brokering the
negotiations with the kidnappers.
