A 53-year-old man was abducted by four individuals just after 6 a.m. on February 24, as he stood outside his shop on Meadows Road in Mount Pritchard. CCTV footage captured the moment he was forced into a Hyundai hatchback.

The victim attempted to fend off his attackers, but ultimately could not escape their grasp.

He was taken to a house in Dural in Sydney’s north-west, where police were able to save him after staging an early morning operation.
The 53-year-old man was taken to hospital in a stable condition and wasn’t seriously injured.

Following the incident, authorities arrested a teenager at a residence in Dural, who is currently facing legal proceedings.

Yesterday at approximately 1:40 p.m., a 20-year-old suspect was apprehended in Penrith and taken to Mount Druitt Police Station.

Police staged a covert operation to recover the man early this morning.

Police claim that this man was one of the four involved in the abduction.

He now faces several charges, including taking and detaining in company with intent to ransom, causing actual bodily harm, and violating bail conditions.

The man was refused bail to appear at Bankstown Local Court today.

The other two people who were seen on CCTV snatching the man in the street still have not been found.
