The 17-year-old daughter of a Philippines radio commentator, Louie Larroza, was abducted and held for eight hours before being released, unharmed.
He believes it was a "warning" about his broadcasts on DYEC radio, because he had received anonymous threats to his family in the days before his daughter was kidnapped,
The girl was in the grounds of her university in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, an island province south of Manila, when a group of men forced her into a car.
She was blindfolded and kept in a warehouse, but police were able to trace her location from a signal on her mobile phone. The kidnappers escaped capture.
