November 14, 2010 (KATAKAMI / NUMBER 10.GOV.UK) --- Prime Minister David Cameron has welcomed the release of kidnapping victims Paul and Rachel Chandler.

The Chandlers, from Kent, left Somalia today after more than a year in captivity. They were taken hostage in October last year when their yacht was stormed by armed men.

The PM said:
“Paul and Rachel Chandler’s release is tremendous news. Their long captivity is over at last.
We will ensure that they are reunited with their family as quickly as possible. I unreservedly condemn the actions of those that held the Chandlers for so long. Kidnapping is never justified.
“I am grateful to all those who have worked so hard to bring the Chandlers safely out.”  (*)
