John Cantlie (born 1970) is a British[1][2] war photographer and correspondent.
John Cantlie was kidnapped in Syria with James Foley in November 2012.[3] He had previously been kidnapped in Syria alongside Dutch photographer Jeroen Oerlemans in July 2012 but was rescued a week later.[4]
In February 2019, British Security Minister Ben Wallace stated that John Cantlie is believed to still be alive.[5]
A Home Office spokesperson said:
- "We do not discuss individual kidnap cases and speculation is unhelpful."[6]
Wallace declined to give details of where British intelligence believes Cantlie is being held by IS.[7]
