FRENCH AID WORKERS 'KIDNAPPING' AFRICAN CHILDREN

Nine French aid workers from the charity Zoe's Ark were apprehended by Chadian authorities as they tried to fly 103 children to France. Chad has accused the workers of kidnapping and the scandal has taken a diplomatic turn.
On Oct 25th Chadian authorities arrested members of Zoe's Ark, a French charity, as they tried to put 103 children on a plane to France. The group says its goals were purely humanitarian, but the Chadian government has implied that the group was engaged in a child trafficking operation.
