The kidnappers of a couple in Delta State have reportedly demanded a ransom of N10 million to free the victims, Sun News reports.
The couple, Mr & Mrs Kelvin Mordi, were abducted last Saturday along the Agbor axis of the Benin-Asaba-Onitsha expressway while going to a wedding reception.
Eyewitnesses said the hoodlums intercepted the vehicle in which they were travelling and got them into their get-away vehicle.
Sun News reports that the Police spokeswoman, DSP Onome Onovwakpoyeya, confirmed the incident but said she was not aware of ransom negotiation.
