[An Nahar] Three Bulgarian airline employees, working on a contract for the United Nations, aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society in Sudan, were kidnapped in the east African country, the Bulgarian foreign ministry said Thursday. "A crew of three Bulgarian nationals, working for a Bulgarian airline company operating flights on a U.N. contract, were kidnapped in north Sudan," the ministry said in a statement.
The ministry said it was in contact with both the company and UNMIS and was seeking more details about the incident. The kidnappers of the three remained unidentified, the ministry added. Chris Cycmanick, the front man for the joint U.N.-African Union peacekeeping mission, said the men were kidnapped Wednesday night about 75 kilometers southeast of Geneina, capital of West Darfur province. | |
