In Belgium, the kidnapped ex-bouncer Mo Azzaoui (49) has been released after being taken hostage on 22 February. He was blindfolded and dropped off in the night from Sunday to Monday and picked up by family. He is physically in good health, according to the Gazet van Antwerpen. The Serbian kidnappers would have become convinced that Azzaoui had nothing to do with the disappearance of 1.2 tons of cocaine. Azzaoui would have been treated well by the kidnappers. He was given pizzas to eat and was allowed to shower and shave. No ransom was paid.
