The plane carrying freed hostages Amanda Lindhout (L), a Canadian freelance reporter, and Nigel Brennan, a freelance Australian photojournalist, leaves the Adden Adde International Airport in Somalia's capital Mogadishu, November 26, 2009. Two freelance journalists released in Somalia on Wednesday after 15 months captivity said they were tortured and feared being sold on to hardline rebels in the anarchic Horn of Africa nation. They were kidnapped in Mogadishu in August 2008 as they went to visit a refugee camp outside the capital. REUTERS/Feisal Omar (SOMALIA CRIME LAW CONFLICT TRANSPORT)
