Ansaru releases video of slain hostages in Nigeria

A video of the seven foreign hostages killed in Nigeria was released on Monday by Islamist group, Ansaru.
The video, released on YouTube, showed the corpses of some of the seven hostages.
According to the Associated Press: “The images matched the still images of hostages released by the group when they claimed the killings.”
The hostages, from Italy, Britain and Greece and four from Lebanon, were working for a Lebanese firm, Setraco.
In the video, a gunman stands on a sand, holding a rifle near what appears to be dead bodies.
A later shot in the video showed three male corpses, one of which appeared to have been killed by a gunshot wound to the head from a high-powered weapon.
The video had no sound.
An accompanying caption for the video in Arabic calls it: “The killing of seven Christian hostages in Nigeria.”
A second caption in Arabic and English stated: “In the name of Allah Most Beneficent Most Merciful.”
Ansaru fighters kidnapped the foreigners on February 16, 2013 from Setraco’s camp in Jama’are, Bauchi State.
