Speaking in an interview on UNMIL radio Monday monitored by the Liberia News Agency, Logan said the woman was early this month suspected of contracting the virus and was being monitored at home by health workers.

He said the woman was then taken to an unknown destination by her relatives without the knowledge of health workers who had been checking on her periodically.
