Italian Red Cross volunteer Eugenio Vagni was released yesterday for almost six months in the hands of Abu Sayyaf. It was a very emotional reunion for him and his family as he was released at the Barangay Lagasan Asibi, Maimbung town at about 12:30 a.m. It was leaded by Marine Maj. Gen. Juancho Sabban and Sulu Vice Gov. Lady Anne Sahidulla. Meanwhile, they denied the alleged ransom paid for Vagni’s release saying the militants agreed to release Vagni in exchange for livelihood projects in Sulu. Meanwhile, Pope Benedict XVI expressed his gratitude towards the good news.
