[PUP] 30 French Crew On 228' Sailing Vessel Held For Ransom In Somalia

[Ron Rogers]

The crew has been either freed or released according to French Premier 
Sarkozy. Although many headlines say, "Pirates Release Hostages" the premier 
said the following:

"Sarkozy thanked the French army and other state officials who helped 
negotiate the release, and said he would again receive members of the 
hostages' families later Friday."

So either the French hostage rescue team negotiated their release or freed 
them is up in the air right now.
