I thank the men and women of the external intelligence services. Silvia, we are waiting for you in Italy! »This is the text of the message published by the Prime Minister. According to intelligence sources, Silvia has been released “and is already safe”: she will arrive in Italy tomorrow, at the Ciampino airport, on a special flight. The operation that led to the liberation took place today at dawn. “Let me breathe, I have to bear the impact. As long as I don’t hear my daughter’s voice, it’s not 100% true for me”: Enzo Romani, Silvia’s father, told ANSA
The young volunteer from Milan., 25, had been kidnapped in the town of Chakama, 80 kilometers from Malindi. He collaborated with the non-profit organization “Africa Milele” that deals mainly with abandoned children. An armed gang, on November 20 two years ago, broke into the organization’s headquarters taking the girl away. The hijackers, of Somali origin, were said to have been in contact with the Shababs, the Islamic extremists operating in the East African belt. Three of the material perpetrators of the kidnapping have already been arrested and are being tried in Kenya.
Silvia was in Somalia. The Italian secret services plane that will take her back to Italy had left this morning at dawn to take her home. The negotiation carried out by Aise led by General Luciano Carta broke about twenty days ago. The test came to life and the price of release was negotiated. Immediately after liberation, he spoke on the phone with his mother and Prime Minister Conte.
