"More than 60 women and girls are reported to have escaped from the Nigerian Islamist group Boko Haram, security sources say.

They were among 68 abducted last month near the town of Damboa in north-eastern Borno state.

But some women who made it home said they feared other escapees had been recaptured, villagers told the BBC."

Only 18 actually made it back to their homes?

The courage it took for them even to attempt escape, I can't fathom.
 
Or is it 63 returned safely and I'm reading incorrectly?
 
I think they were all being held together. From what I can tell from the reports. So the rest are still there? It's a true nightmare. Western religion is evil but human trafficking is alright. Fucked up.
 
Some getting out is better than none at all. But hoping that the ones that made it out will give the others hope.
