So we're sort of out in no man's land and the other RAV4 or whatever it was, I can remember we're pulled out of the vehicle.

As I go to get into that, UpMed's obviously cranky as a hornet, smacks me on the head again with the butt of his pistol as I'm getting in the vehicle.

And then we're driven around for a period of time.

It's just like, oh, my God, this is where โ€“ what is happening?

What I survived
462 Days: Kidnapped in Somalia P5

We're finally taken to a house where there's a family living because there's shoes at the front door and, you know, once we get in the compound, so there's people in the house and we can hear them.

Why did you do it?

What I survived

I was just like, well, have you?

What I survived

Have you really looked after us?

And then at one point, one of the young guys sort of walked in with a bag of chains and I was just like, oh my God, are they going to beat us to death?

What I survived
462 Days: Kidnapped in Somalia P5

They're just going to start torturing us.
