Wife 'thrilled' at Kember release

Extracts

The wife of Norman Kember has said she is "thrilled" that the Briton and two Canadian peace activists held hostage in Iraq have been freed.

Pat Kember said: "He was very, very pleased to be free, but he was very emotional in talking to me."

[glow=red:f88282b607]Mr Kember, 74, of north-west London, James Loney, 41, and Harmeet Singh Sooden, 32, were three of four men seized in Baghdad in November[/glow:f88282b607].

The body of their US colleague Tom Fox, 54, was found in Baghdad on 9 March.

The three men are believed to have been rescued at 0800 local time (0500 GMT), following a week-long operation led by British troops and involving US and Canadian special forces.
