As the search continued yesterday for missing Caribbean Airlines (CAL) pilot Captain Daniel Kawall, a senior police investigator confirmed a ransom demand has been made for his safe return.

The officer told the Sunday Express by telephone the “Anti-­Kidnapping Unit is taking the lead because a ransom was demanded. Once a ransom is demanded, AKU takes the lead”.

He added: “They received a message demanding a ransom of, I think, one million dollars. That was since early Friday morning.”
