The American citizen who was abducted in Pakistan
An American citizen has been abducted by gunmen from his house in the Pakistani city of Lahore, police say. The U. S. embassy confirmed the abduction and named the man as Warren Wein-stein. (9) Mr. Weinstein has been in Pakistan for at least five years and has been working for the firm JE Austin on development in tribal areas. He was to return to the U. S. on 15 August. The abduction of Pakistanis for ransom is common and a few foreigners have been targeted by militant groups. Police said about eight kidnappers attacked the house before dawn on Saturday. One report said the Mr. Weinstein’s driver was forced to open the door, another that the security guards were tricked into opening the door by men with food offerings for the fasting month of Ramadan. U.S. embassy spokesman Alberto Rodriguez said the U. S. was working with Pakistani authorities on the case. No-one has yet said they carried out the kidnapping.
Foreigners are infrequently targeted by kidnappers in Pakistan; the last such incident involved a Swiss couple who were kidnapped in the south-western province of Balochistan in July. (10) Five-year-old British boy Sahil Saeed was kidnapped when visiting his grandmother’s home in the Punjab region on 4 March 2010. He was released after being held for 12 days when a $ 180, 000 ransom was paid by his family.
