                    [Title] => Hope dims for kidnapped Chinese
                    [Summary] => DATU PIGLAS, Maguindanao – Hope appears to be dimming for the rescue of a Chinese and a Filipino from a kidnapping group calling itself the "Pentagon."


Brig. Gen. Edilberto Adan, Armed Forces spokesman, told reporters yesterday North Cotabato Gov. Emmanuel Piñol no longer believes that Zhang Zhung Yi and Edwin Lim could be rescued if the mi-litary attacks the kidnappers’ hideout.

"Their captors are extremely ruthless," Adan said. "They can kill the captives again if cornered by pursuing policemen and soldiers."
