Update: Susanne Osthoff Has Been Freed

by on December 18th, 2005

Susanne Osthoff, the German archaeologist and relief worker kidnapped in Iraq three weeks ago, has been freed and is reportedly in sound health, according to German authorities. Her driver is also expected to be freed shortly. Details are still sketchy — I imagine more will be forthcoming as Osthoff makes her way home to begin her recovery — but for now it’s simply a relief to know she is ok.
