A Polish man has been arrested in Budapest on charges of kidnapping, hostage-taking and armed robbery in Poland, the Budapest Police Headquarters (BRFK) said on Wednesday.
The 24-year-old man had been hiding in a rented flat in Józsefváros on Sunday, the police.hu website said. The man is being held in custody pending extradition proceedings.
The Metropolitan Court said in a statement on Wednesday that
the Polish citizen and his accomplices held a man hostage between November 15 and 29, 2019 and physically abused him.
They forced their victim to hand over his vehicles.
The Polish authorities issued a European arrest warrant which the Hungarian authorities acted on and the Poles must fulfil by March 18, otherwise he will be released.
