Two teen girls and one man were arrested and charged with kidnapping and robbery with violence following investigations into the alleged kidnapping of a taxi driver on February 9.
Celine Chartoo, 18, of Fyzabad and a 17-year-old from Penal are due to appear virtually at the Siparia Magistrates’ Court along with Kevin Antoine, 30, to answer to the charges.
A taxi-driver reported to police that while plying his Nissan Tiida vehicle for hire, three passengers, one male and two females, entered his vehicle on the Fyzabad taxi-stand in Siparia and asked to be taken to Market Road, Fyzabad.
When they arrived at the destination, the male suspect pointed a firearm at the taxi driver and told him to stop the car, which he did.
