French al-Qaida hostage back home after three-year ordeal
The French president has urged citizens not to travel to areas where they risk being kidnapped, as he greeted a man returning after being held hostage for three years by al-Qaida’s North Africa branch.
Serge Lazarevic arrived in France early today at the Villacoublay airport outside Paris after being released in what some suspect was a prisoner exchange.
