John Ridsdel, a Canadian held hostage by Islamist militants in the Philippines, "has been killed at the hands of his captors," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a statement Monday.
"This was an act of cold-blooded murder and responsibility rests squarely with the terrorist group who took him hostage," Trudeau said, emphasizing that Canada condemns the "brutality" of this "unnecessary death."
