S Korean hostage pleads for help

A South Korean woman held hostage with 21 others in
Afghanistan has pleaded for help to secure their release.

The woman, who identified herself as Yo Syun Ju, told
an Afghan reporter by telephone all the hostages were
sick.

"Tell them to do something to get us released," she said
in an interview carried out in the presence of the Taleban
militants holding her captive.

A group of 23 Koreans was abducted a week ago. The
kidnappers have since killed one of the hostages.
