Freed hostage Kember tells of ordeal

FREED British peace activist Norman Kember yesterday spoke about his ordeal for the first time.

He said four months of his life had been “stolen”, but the 74-year-old insisted there was “no point in regretting” his decision to go to Iraq and try to help its people.

In an interview with the Baptist Times newspaper, the Christian described the swings in treatment that he and his three fellow hostages experienced.
