Muscat An Australian kidnapped in Yemen was evacuated from the war-torn country by the Omani government on Wednesday after negotiations through tribal mediators led to his release. Oman's foreign ministry did not name the man and it was not immediately clear if he was Craig McAllister, who was abducted in the rebel-held Yemeni capital Sanaa in September. The ministry said only that it had acted at the request of the Australian authorities. Australian Minister of Foreign Affairs Julie Bishop confirmed the release of"an Australian kidnapped in Yemen," without naming him. (AFP)
