LUANDA, Angola — An Irish priest kidnaped by Angolan rebels on his way to celebrate Mass two weeks ago has been released, Angolan officials said Saturday. They said Father John Kingston will hold a news conference Monday in the northern town of Malanje where he has been for years. A French priest, Jean-Etienne Wozniak, was killed May 26 by the right-wing rebels as he and Kingston drove to a remote area of Malanje province.
