By beating one child, she is throwing a scare among the other 30 to 40 children, isn’t she?There are instances that the terrorists had released the hostage without harming them. Some time back the terrorists, who had captured the three Indians working in Iraq as truck drivers, had released them after keeping them all in captivity for a month or so.
