FILE - This file image taken from an online video purportedly released by the Islamic State group's al-Furqan media arm on Tuesday, Jan. 20, 2015, but lacks their logo, purports to show the group threatening to kill two Japanese hostages that the militants identify as KenjiÜGoto, left, and Haruna Yukawa, right, unless a $200 million ransom is paid within 72 hours. Far from the high-tech, slickly edited videos involving beheaded Western hostages through which the group impressed supporters and terrorized opponents, recent messages purporting to be from Japanese hostage Kenji Goto have been through digitized, audio dispatches featuring either still photos or text. Experts who examined this video said it was more likely filmed in an indoor studio with a false backdrop. (AP Photo, File) ORG XMIT: CAITH106
