Just for HOTYH: A Small Foreign Faction (Sort of...)

[Sophie]

Thought this story would interest you since the family insist it's not an 'inside job' and the ransom amount is so small (£100,000). No real parallels with the Ramsey case but interesting nonetheless.

Hi Sophie.

The perils of mentioning 'the inside job' when you're an insider?

Mr Hasan said detectives were looking at the possibility of whether the kidnap was "a sort of inside job".
But speaking later he appeared to distance himself from the comments, saying: "I did not say that it is an inside job done by the family, I said somebody nearby must have informed those criminals and they must be in league with them.

Comes with the territory, I guess.

Reminded me of a kidnapping I had heard of previously though:
