While inside the bush, “they Undressed me and give me new cloth to wear. Inside that bush I met 6 victims also begging for their life which they join me with. One of them who drove off my car called after 5minutes that my car has security and they should kill me if I didn’t give the security information, and I gave out the info. I tried to escape the first time, I was caught and thoroughly beaten up and tiled down with rope on both legs and hands. From their conversation, I heard, if the car owner has no one to pay 3m or 5m he should not be released (that’s me). That’s when I realized that they are not only robbers but also a kidnappers”
