Gift of the Givers claim that Journalist Shiraaz Mohamed has “escaped from captivity” in Syria and is free. However, there has been no confirmation from @DIRCO_ZA @TurkishEmbPTA nor Mohamed’s family as yet. Gift of the Givers refused to assist in getting Mohamed released. 
“The family of Shiraaz Mohammed would like to respond to the latest news regarding his release. However considering the sensitive nature of his circumstance we believe it is irresponsible to make any public comment as it may endanger his life...”
“We will keep the media informed once we have received independent confirmation that Shiraaz is safely with the relevant authorities,” the family adds.
