Senator Richard Gordon on Sunday maintained that no ransom would be paid in exchange for the release of the three International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) workers who were abducted in southern Philippines last week.
In an interview with radio dzBB, Gordon, chairman of Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC), said that despite the absence of negotiation feelers, they would neither shell out money nor negotiate for the release of Swiss Andreas Notter, 38; Italian Eugenio Vagni, 62; and Filipina Mary Jean Lacaba, 37.
Gordon also declined to speculate that the captors of Notter, Vagni and Lacaba are members of the notorious Abu Sayyaf terrorist group.
