Lebanese arrested for kidnapping his aunt “to punish her”

                                    
A 23-year-old Lebanese has been arrested for kidnapping his 61-year-old aunty.

On Thursday, Mohammed Dannawi told journalists that he committed the crime to punish her.

“My aunty did something very bad to my wife and I and so I decided to punish her. I met with Obi (Kwentua) and told him that I wanted my aunty kidnapped. I gave him the spare key to her house and he in turn hired some boys to do the work,” he said.

“On the day of the operation, I left the house and five guys stormed the place and took my aunty away. The plan was not to demand money from her, it was just punishment.”

But the deal went burst and the kidnappers, demanded N100m ransom but later agreed to collect N4m. Reports say it was while attempting to collect the ransom that one of the suspects was arrested while others ran into hiding.
