MARAN: It has been almost a month since Abu Sayyaf kidnap victim, Mohd Ridzuan Ismail, was freed after spending more than eight months in captivity, but the 33-year-old is struggling to move on. The father of three, who returned to his hometown in Felda Jengka 7, here, on April 19, wants to spend quality time with his siblings before making his next move. Ridzuan, who was rescued on March 27, said he remained traumatised and even though weeks had passed, his captivity lingered in his mind. The former sailor said he decided to leave Tawau with his wife, children and mother-in-law to allow him to rest and clear his mind over the ordeal.
