“Terrorists and insurgents under different umbrella that I can’t mention are looking for them. Not because they want to kill them but because they can exchange them for bigger ransom payments.
“Now if we truly want to bring this terrorism and banditry to an end, we must make effort to stop the payments of ransom to these armed groups.
“And we can start by preventing the kidnap of high profiled persons like expatriates and so on.”
