The Somali pirate chief has taken a fancy to his 13-year-old Danish hostage, and he is so besotted with her he's willing to let the rest of her family go free and forget the $5 million ransom his pirate colleagues demanded, the Daily Mail reports.

A Danish reporter, who visited the African nation to track down the Johansen family, was not allowed to speak to the family, but he spoke to the chief pirate who apparently revealed his plans for a bride.

The terrifying proposal puts more pressure on the authorities and hostage negotiators to free the family. The reporter assumed the offer would not be accepted.

Henrik Ljung, a senior Danish psychologist, said: "The offer of marriage was simply a way of applying psychological pressure, a show of force. It's an extremely effective tool if you want to raise money." （點(diǎn)擊《每日郵報(bào)》查看原文）

索馬里海盜要娶13歲人質(zhì)

???????據(jù)英國(guó)《每日郵報(bào)》報(bào)道，一名索馬里海盜頭目竟愛(ài)上被劫持的丹麥家庭的13歲女兒。為了她，他甚至愿意釋放其他家庭成員，并且放棄同伙索要的500萬(wàn)美元的贖金。

???????一名丹麥記者奉命來(lái)到索馬里追訪約翰森一家，他沒(méi)有獲得許可和被劫持的家庭講話，但是海盜頭目親自接受了他的采訪，透露打算娶老婆的計(jì)劃。

???????這個(gè)可怕的建議將使丹麥政府和人質(zhì)談判專家面臨更大的壓力。記者估計(jì)這種要求不可能被接受。

???????丹麥心理學(xué)家亨里克·榮表示，求婚只是海盜對(duì)人質(zhì)和施救者施加心理壓力的一種手段，是他們炫耀武力的一種方式。如果海盜想拿到錢(qián)，這是一個(gè)非常有效的辦法。
