Shameless ,heartless Kidnappers should be Hung by their privatesKidnapped 76-year- old Woman Feared DeadFrom Ahamefula Ogbu in Port Harcourt, 08.12.2009The family of 76-year-old Mrs. Ibiwari Brown kidnapped two months ago from Abalama town in Asari Toru Local Government Area of Rivers State has said that the group which abducted her and demanded N30 million ransom had called to say she had died.A statement sent online by Alabo Aroloye Brown said the family had been frequenting police stations and handed petitions to the Commissioner of Police, Bala Hassan, on the issue, lamenting that no positive thing had been heard from the police.Contacted, spokesperson of the Police in Rivers State, Mrs. Rita Abbey, confirmed that she was aware of the said kidnap but was yet to hear that she was dead. She said the family members of the kidnapped victim had been coming to their office on the issue.“Twenty four days after her kidnap, the kidnappers called, that was the third time, and demanded for N30million ransom and gave us a phone number to call only when we are ready with the money.“They warned that mama will be killed if we try to make an offer,” Brown said in the statement.But we bluffed them and begged them but they refused and instead cut off communication with us.“This and other security information were promptly given to the security. We were instead advised unofficially to know what to do and not to depend on the police because they were handicapped.“On the 19th of July, 2009 they called and after a long discussion, they promised to release her in the early hours of 20th. This discussion was made between 10.47 and 10.54pm of the 19th instead. That was 30days after her kidnap. On the 3rd of August, 2009 they called and told me that mama is dead. Maybe it is correct or they are bluffing , only God knows”, Alabo Brown said.
