Today we received a letter from Asmara, Eritrea:
Asmara, May 20, 2012
Frewoyni is a very poor mother who works in and grain mill (wheat, sorghum etc) in Asmara Eritrea and she nurtured her single boy as a single mother since his father is died. Her boy is not under control and he informed her that he will soon travel to Ethiopia illegally. Finally she received a call from telephone in the neighbor her only son called Muse Gebreegziabher is cough by the Bedouines in Sinai and they claim 1,500,000 Nakfa (One million five hundred thousand). Based on the black market exchange rate 37,500 USD.
This amount of money is un imaginable for her and it is she has never dreamed of it in her life. She is working in a floor mill the whole day and she gets from 3-4 Kg of floor from the customers in the floor mill and half of it she use for food and the rest she sold it and use for house rent and other living expenses.
I would appreciate if she could ever collect 50,000 Nakfa since most people are helping her with 10- 20 Nakfa. Moreover she has no one outside Eritrea who could help her. The smugglers contacted the voice of her son and he informed her unless she paid it urgently he will be killed.
She is now distributing a call for support for money; she is bagging in the churches and all around Asmara to fulfill and to save her only son.
This kind of merciless, unacceptable in all religion and beliefs should be stopped. Even the smugglers should consider the way they are acting ruthlessly.
They give her two weeks. Please lets apple this information to all concerned especially to the Egypt Government, Arab Leag and other concerned bodies who could help her. To stop such act on human being !!
Wish you all the best,
Daniel, Asmara, Eritrea

This is one of the many kidnappings taking place every day in Sinai, Egypt. Today there are over a thousand young Eritreans in the hands of traffickers. Many of them disappear into thin air.
In 2009 Abu Ahmed, a marauder in Sinai, told an activist who contacted him:
"The Egyptian authorities will not do anything to stop us because we use a lot of the money that comes from kidnappings to support Islam."
Today, we are asking the new Egypt to contradict him and all the murderers, torturers and rapists who carry out terrible atrocities in the name of their religion.
