Philippines army finds body of German hostage Jurgen Kantner beheaded by Abu Sayyaf

The body of Jurgen Kantner has been recovered by Philippine soldiers. German national Kantner was beheaded by Isis-affiliated Abu Sayyaf militants last week. The 70-year-old was captured during a sailing tour with his partner, who was killed immediately. The terrorists had demanded a $600,000 ransom to save Kantner. Philippine soldiers are currently battling Abu Sayyaf to free other hostages. Mar 5, 2017
