A retired British couple snatched from their yacht by Somali pirates said in an interview broadcast Friday they fear they could be killed within a week or handed to a terrorist group if a ransom demand is not paid.
Paul and Rachel Chandler were kidnapped last month by pirates who seized their 38-foot yacht - the Lynn Rival - as they sailed toward Tanzania.
In an interview with Britain's Channel 4 news program, the Chandlers are seen surrounded by armed men, some of whom have their guns pointed directly at the couple.
