The Lagos police have rescued the three Fouani brothers who were kidnapped last week.
Beyond Boders recalls that the brothers, Abbas, Youssef, and Amtal Fouani, were taken on June 14 around 6pm while returning from their factory by boat.
Fouani Nigeria Ltd, the family’s company, sells electronics and is the main distributor for LG, Hisense, and Maxi products in Nigeria.
The police worked hard to find the victims. On Monday night, the brothers, along with the boat driver and his assistant, were freed in Orugbo Iddo.
Benjamin Hundeyin, a police spokesperson, confirmed the rescue through a Whatsapp message. “Our marine police with the support of the Nigerian Navy brought them to shore,” he said.
The police then took the five rescued individuals, including the three Lebanese brothers, to their home on Banana Island early Tuesday morning.
