PORT HARCOURT, Nigeria (AP) - Gunmen seized three eastern European workers in the latest kidnapping to hit Nigeria's southern oil region, police said Monday. The men were abducted late Sunday in the region's main city of Port Harcourt, Rivers State police spokeswoman Irejua Barasua said.
The Croatian Foreign Ministry said the men seized — two Croatians and a Montenegrin — work on oil platforms through a Croatian maritime company.
"The kidnappers have not issued any demands for their release yet," said Foreign Ministry Spokesman Vinko Ljubicic, adding that they were in contact with the hostages' employers.
