Alan Johnston

Okay, I know everyone will assume I am hopping on a band wagon here, but that's far from the case. Alan Johnston, the BBC reporter for Gaza, was first kidnapped six weeks ago - shortly before the 15 sailors were taken by Iran - and I have been following this ever since as it strikes a chord with me that a journalist should be taken. Unfortunately the sailors capture took over the news headlines for a couple of weeks and even on their return the papers still relegated Alan Johnston's story to the inside pages despite there being no news of him or his whereabouts.

This is something I feel very strongly about, hence making this post. The button below takes you to the BBC page detailing events surrounding his capture. Let's help keep this at the forefront of peoples' minds so that something is done to ensure this innocent man returns home soon.
