Episode description

An American pastor who was kidnapped by armed men during a church service in South Africa last week has been rescued following a "high-intensity shoot-out". Police say three people were killed. Josh Sullivan was found unharmed in the township in Gqeberha in the Eastern Cape province. Why is South Africa facing a rise in kidnappings?

Also, why are women still dying during pregnancy and childbirth in West Africa?

And why is India carrying out naval exercises along the East African coast?
