Father Tom was abducted by ISIS on March 4, 2016 during an attack on a retirement home ran by the Missionaries of Charity. Close to 16 people died during the attack. He was previously thought to have been crucified, however, the Indian Embassy claims that Father Tom is still alive but not yet released. Father Tom has relatives in the United States. The US government should do something to release of Father Tom and work to ensure his safe return.
