Terrorist group threatens to kill Australian hostage (Video)

TERRORIST group Al Harakatul Al-Islamiyyah has said it will kill Australian hostage Warren Rodwell, in the latest threat to the Australian government.

The threat was accompanied by a new photograph of Mr Rodwell surrounded by masked gunmen. According to social media website Rappler, a post on Facebook from Tuesday by the al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group Al Harakatul Al-Islamiyyah shows the gaunt figure of the Australian hostage.

The message contained a threat to kill Mr Rodwell if ransom money was not paid to the group immediately.
