過激派集団「イスラム国」が拘束しているジャーナリスト後藤健二さん(47)について、イスラム国の戦闘員とみられる人物が、1月28日夜、「もはやイスラム国の捕虜ではない」と解放を匂わせるツイートを投稿した。
※29日午前1:51更新
ただ、この人物は以前に「2人は処刑された」という内容のツイートもしており、「すでに捕虜ではない」は解放を意味するのか、その信憑性は定かでない。

JAPAN-IRAQ-SYRIA-CONFLICT-HOSTAGE(07 of09)
Ko Nakata, Islamic law scholar and visiting professor of Japan\'s Doshisha University, speaks to the press in Tokyo on January 22, 2015, saying he would be able to mediate talks between the Japanese government and the Islamic State over the current hostage crisis following the Islamic State group\'s demand of 200 million USD for the lives of freelance journalist Kenji Goto and self-employed contractor Haruna Yukawa. Japan\'s hostage crisis is a stark reminder that Tokyo\'s deep pockets and alliance with the US make it a target for Islamist militants, analysts say, even if the nation considers itself far removed from Middle Eastern conflicts.
