The Islamic State group claimed to be holding a Norwegian man and a
Chinese consultant hostage and demanded ransom for their release. The
extremist group posted pictures of the two men wearing yellow prison
outfits in the latest issue of its online magazine Dabiq.
It identifies the Norwegian man as Ole Johan Grimsgaard-Ofstad, 48, from
Oslo, and the Chinese man as Fan Jinghui, 50, a freelance consultant
from Beijing.
The poster states: 'To whom it may concern of the crusaders, pagans and
their allies as well as what are referred to as human "rights"
organisations.'This prisoner was abandoned by his government which did
not do its utmost to purchase his freedom.'
It then lists a telegram number for 'whoever would like to pay the
ransom for his release and transfer', adding: 'Note, this is a limited
time offer.'
