Kidnapped worker stands by criticism of aid agency

The aid worker who was freed after being held by Sudanese rebels for more than three months said she does not regret her criticism of the charity she was working for at the time.

Sharon Commins and Goal colleague Hilda Kawuki were kidnapped while working in Darfur in 2009. Ms Commins said: “Ultimately, the buck stops with the aid agency.”

Now working with Concern, Ms Commins made her comments at the University of Limerick.
