Wasn't allowed to scratch head as it made noise: Released journo
Japanese journalist Jumpei Yasuda, who was released by Islamist militants after three years in captivity, has revealed he could not scratch his head as he wasn't allowed to make noise. "Because I couldn't wash my hair, my head itched," he said. Yasuda added that he was confined for eight months to a space 1.5 metres high and 1 metre wide.
