Chicago Tribune - The Islamist militant group Boko Haram claimed responsibility Monday for the abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls during a raid in the village of Chibok in northeast Nigeria last month, the French news agency AFP reported, citing a video it had obtained.

"I abducted your girls," Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau said in the video, according to AFP. Sekau also said Monday that he would sell the girls "on the market."
