A 24 year old Tarodale man who allegedly kidnapped himself to get a girl’s attention is in police custody.
The man allegedly sent an email to a relative claiming that he was kidnapped.
The email also stated that a ransom of $75,000 had to be paid for his release.
However, the suspect was allegedly found by police sitting alone, in good health, in his car in Tarouba around 11 p.m.
Officers of the Ste Madeleine police station received the report around 6.30 p.m.
The matter was reported when Southern Division police and members of the Anti-Kidnapping Unit were also probing another kidnapping report made hours earlier.

TWO MEN GO TO JAIL FOR FAKE KIDNAPPING
TWO men who faked their kidnappings were on Thursday sentenced to 30 days in prison.
Jonathan Ramcharan, 24 of Gasparillo, sent a message to his mother for a $100,000 ransom after he found himself in financial difficulty. He admitted he also scraped part of his body “to make his story seem real.”
Kevin Ramroop, 22 of Tarouba, thought his kidnapping for ransom would lead to him rekindling with his ex-girlfriend. He asked that $60,000 be handed over for his safe return.
Both men who were charged with wasteful employment of the police, had sent messages to relatives on Wednesday.
Police prosecutor Sgt Krishna Bedassie told the court that at 11.14 a.m. on Wednesday Ramcharan’s mother Asha Lessey Ramcharan was at their Gasparillo home when she received a text message from her son’s phone that he had been kidnapped. A second message made a ransom demand of $100,000. She made a report to the police. Several officers went to different locations, including Carlton Centre, San Fernando where they viewed camera footage.
When officers met Ramcharan the following day, he told them he had not been kidnapped. “I left Carlton Centre and took a black taxi to Port of Spain. When I sent the message to my mother, I was a passenger in a taxi. I had some money problems so I could explain why I did it.”
When asked about his minor injuries, he said, “I wanted to make my story seem real so I scraped myself up with keys from my mother’s car.” He said he threw these and the cell phone away in Port of Spain but was unsure of the exact location as “I don’t know town.”
Ramcharan was charged by constable Gervais.
Defence attorney Subhas Panday said the father of one who had no previous convictions, had lost his job and was depressed. The attorney said he had borrowed money from a lady whom he repaid but accused him of still owing her. He said Ramcharan was being followed by men sent by her. “On that day they were demanding money from him and he was so ashamed and frightened, he didn’t tell anyone … It was an act of stupidity on his part.”
In Ramroops’ case, the court heard that he sent a message on social media from his Facebook account to his sister Alan Rose Phillip, telling her that he had been kidnapped. A ransom demand of 60,000 was made.
Officers conducting interviews and recorded statements. They received a message and went to Reform Road Gasparillo where they saw Ramroop standing at the side of the road with his hands tied and mud on his hands and feet. He later told corporal Mohammed, “Officer today I get a video of my ex-girlfriend and that trip me off and I send a message to Alana on Facebook. I really didn’t get kidnapped ... Officer, I sorry for faking my kidnapping … That tabanca really get me dotish. I didn’t expect it to reach so far. I really shame now.”
He was charged by corporal Shaun Mohammed.
Defence attorney Dane Halls said his client who had no previous convictions, was unemployed and lived with is carpenter father and his mother who is a domestic worker. He said Ramroop regularly attended church and although he was on the verge of taking his life over the situation, his biblical teachings made him change his mind.
He said the message was sent to his sister in the hope that it would have been forwarded to the ex-girlfriend and led to them rekindling their relationship. Instead, his sister went to their parents. “It wasn’t a good plan … The whole thing went awry,” Halls said.
He asked the court to “treat with this jilted lover as lenient as possible.”
In both instances Magistrate Kerri-Anne Byer spoke of the strain such actions put on the police’s resources. “A battery of police need to come together to solve such a crime.” She also said that it affects family members and the society and made reference to a recent kidnapping in San Fernando which she said “had the entire country on edge wondering what could happen.”
In both instances, she started with a sentence of five months. After considering factors pertaining to the men and the case, she sentenced each to 30 days hard labour

Men inside doh business if the phone get seized. What they do usually is have 2 sim cards. One sim for making calls the other for receiving. They only have in the sim with the credit to make calls when they need to. A sim is small and easy to hide. When the phone gets confiscated its usually the receiving credit strapped sim that's in the phone. The other sim usually has enough credit on it to purchase another phone / free receiving sim.pugboy wrote:It must suck to have a phone with plenty money on it seized
