Three Jailed for Smethwick Kidnapping

Three men have been jailed for a total of 15 years after a kidnapping and assault in Smethwick. The victim, a man in his 40s, was abducted in the early hours of the 25th November last year. He was forced into a Seat Leon and driven to a banqueting suite in Smethwick. Over several hours, he was stripped naked, assaulted, burnt with cigarettes, and beaten with a metal pole, all over an alleged debt.
