Rachel and Paul Chandler, who were forced off their 38-foot yacht and onto an open skiff in October of last year by pirates, could be released within the next couple of weeks.

On Friday a Somali official revealed that communities inside and outside the East African country are working hard to negotiate the "unconditional release" of the Chandlers.

"We are hopeful that the British couple will be released as soon as possible without condition," stated Mohamed Omar Dalha, the deputy speaker of Somalia's parliament. (Fox News)
