Police have rescued a 73-year-old businesswoman less than 24 hours after she was abducted from her home, in what Commissioner Allister Guevarro described as a “major breakthrough” against cross-border kidnapping networks.
In an audio statement issued this morning, Guevarro confirmed that Tara Poliah, of Samoa, was taken around 7.30 pm yesterday while in the garage of her home.
He said four male suspects approached Poliah and forced her into a white Nissan wagon before fleeing the scene.
