kidnapping an Englishman

Police arrested a Dutch citizen in Alhaurin de la Torre last week and charged him with kidnapping an Englishman who worked for him as chauffeur. The latter started work on June 19th but was forced to work increasingly longer hours until he was finally forbidden to go anywhere unless accompanied by his employer or one of his sons. The Dutchman also held on to his documents. The Englishman managed to give the family the slip during a visit to Torremolinos at the beginning of this month and made his way to Otura in Granada province, where he contacted the Local Police
