Kidnapping in Warsaw

- Opinion-making daily Rzeczpospolita revealed that Warsaw has been plagued by kidnapping foreign businessmen. The biggest Turkish daily Hurriyet described the story of three Turkish and two Indian kidnapped businessmen. Four of them were released after the ransom was paid, the family of the Indian businessman had to pay one million euro. The fifth kidnapped businessman has not yet been released. Polish police confirmed that three of these kidnappings were reported. No details of the enquiry have been revealed so far. Several Poles were arrested and charged with participation in the kidnapping but lacking substantial evidence the police had to set them free. It is possible that the kidnappings were organised by another Turkish businessman, officially the owner of a transport company, unofficially a leading drug smuggler, who has been in hiding for several months.
