"I learned with pain the news of the kidnapping in Haiti of a group of people, including six nuns, [...] While urging their release, I pray for social harmony in the country. I invite everyone to stop the violence that is causing so much suffering to this dear population."

The kidnappers reportedly demanded a ransom of 3 million US dollars from the nuns' relatives in exchange for their release.
