Lebanese man arrested for kidnapping in Lagos
A 23 year old Lebanese man, Mohamed Dannawi has been arrested by police in Lagos in connection with the kidnapping of his 61 year old aunt, Alhaja Essa Dannawi. He conspired with Obi Kwentua, a former employee of his aunt, to kidnap the woman on May 2nd at her home in Ebute Meta, Lagos.
Mohammed, who later confessed to the crime, told police during interrogation that he didn’t kidnap his aunt because of money but to punish her because she offended him and his wife.
“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. 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.” Mohamed said in a statement to the police.
The kidnappers demanded N100m ransom from the woman’s family but later agreed to collect N4m.The police were able to arrest one of the suspects, Obi Kwentua when he came to collect the N4million ransom from relatives of the victim at Rita Lori Hotel in Surulere.
Guess its time for Judgment.
