"The situation here is very dire and very serious. I've been a hostage for nine months. The conditions are very bad. I don't drink clean water. I am fed at most once a day," Amanda Lindhout reportedly told the Agence France-Presse news agency in a phone interview Sunday."I have been sick for months. Unless my government, the people of Canada, all my family and friends can get $1 million, I will die here, OK. That is certain."
Lindhout and Nigel Brennan - a photographer from Australia - were among several people abducted by roadside kidnappers outside the capital city of Mogadishu Aug. 23, 2008.
