Foresine said The man asks his son to give the gang that kidnapped him “what they want or hand over the people who are involved in the theft of their goods.”
In the video the man said that he had a “slow death” for something he didn’t do and asked his son to intervene when he is still alive or was dead. “
“This statement suggests that the eldest can no longer carry the captivity and, even if he died, asks as a sign that he can no longer endure his kidnapping and turns to the dead to get help to end his suffering,” wrote Forsatin.
