Manila (Philippines): Suspected Muslim militants have posted a video purportedly showing for the first time two Canadians, a Norwegian and a Filipino woman who were abducted in September from a southern Philippine resort, and demanded that government forces stop its artillery attacks.
Army Brig. Alan Arrojado said that authorities were trying to verify the authenticity of the video, adding the military would reject any demands from the militants. The video was circulated online and by the US—based SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors jihadi websites.
