Gunmen in Nigeria have demanded $12 million for the release of an Israeli expatriate kidnapped earlier this week at his home in the southern oil city of Port Harcourt, an Israeli Embassy source said on Friday.
Four gunmen late on Tuesday abducted the 60-year-old project manager, who works for Israeli construction firm Gilmor Engineering Limited, and fled by stealing his vehicle. (Reuters)
