Video with Amanda Lindhout & Nigel Brennan Released

Video released by Somalian terrorists shows Canadian Amanda Lindhout and Australian Nigel Brennan are still alive. In the video the terrorists do not make any demands for money but chastise the Canadian and Australian governments in their "contribution to Somalia's destruction". CTV

The friend of a Canadian journalist kidnapped in Somalia says he is worried by a new video released by her captors.

The footage broadcast by Al Jazeera shows Amanda Lindhout, of Sylvan Lake, Alta., and her Australian colleague Nigel Brennan.

They were kidnapped on Aug. 23, along with a Somali journalist and two guards, near Mogadishu.

The Qatar-based network said their captors are members of the so-called Mujahedeen of Somalia -- a group that accuses the governments of Canada and Australia of contributing to the "destruction" of Somalia.

Earlier this month, the Montreal-based Reporters Without Borders said the group had demanded $2.5 million in ransom for the release of the three journalists. However, there was no mention of the money in the new footage.

The video shows Lindhout wearing a long red head covering while Brennan is wearing Western-style clothes.

Al Jazeera reports that the two prisoners appeal in the video to their governments to work for their release.
