No other news on it at the moment other than the fact he's been released, not quite sure why though. Been held hostage for well over 2 years now. Still another one kept hostage though.

Bing band diddily dong, correct. You make some very valid points. If only the UK could adopt this attitude for certain crimes, such as rape, paedophilia, murder, etc. then we'd have a country with much less...

It seems this is more serious than first thought...
