Now Lebanon - Charbel: We’ve worked hard to free the Estonians - July 14, 2011

Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said on Thursday that “the security forces have worked very hard [from the very beginning] to find and free the seven Estonians,” who were kidnapped in March and released today.
“Within 48 hours of the abduction, we were able to arrest three of the kidnappers,” he told LBC local television.
Charbel said the abductors did not ask for a ransom, adding, “We will interrogate the kidnappers and reveal all the details.”
The seven Estonian men, all in their 30s, were kidnapped on March 23 in the Bekaa shortly after entering Lebanon on a bicycle tour from neighboring Syria.
