The tank in which she was forced to fit in.
Hafsa who was last seen at her clothing shop was kidnapped by a criminal gang, that demanded a ransom of Sh5 million, in exchange of her freedom.
In a heart rending videoclip recorded by the kidnappers after her disappearance, Hafsa who appeared tortured, begged her family to meet the demands of her tormentors, for her life to be spared. Following an elaborate operation conducted by detectives from Crime Research & Intelligence Bureau and the Special Service Unit, Hafsa was rescued today morning.
The badly shaken woman who had visible bruises on her face and hands, was immediately rushed to hospital for medical attention. One 24-year-old suspect who is part of the gang that kidnapped Hafsa, was arrested and is currently being interviewed by detectives to shed more light on the kidnapping & help in the arrest of his fellow miscreants.The Directorate of Criminal Investigations is issuing a stern warning to any persons harbouring the intention of committing such a heinous crime, that no efforts shall be spared in their pursuit.
