CWN Editor's Note: Father John Beryinyuy Tatah was released on December 2 by separatist guerrillas in Cameroon. He was the last of six priests who were seized on November 15 to be set free.
Church officials in Cameroon have made only cautious public comments on the kidnappings, apparently anxious to avoid increasing tensions in the Anglophone region of the country where separatist sentiments run high.
