Two Bermudians are in custody in Britain after kidnapping allegations said to involve a third person from the island.

Nottinghamshire police said that a 20-year-old man sustained minor injuries during the incident, which occurred on March 30 in the town of Bulwell.

The Nottingham Post reported that 22-year-old Alshauntia Robinson and Tafari Smith, aged 26, appeared in Magistrates’ Court on Monday, along with Denell Baker, 23.

According to sources in Nottingham, which is home to a Bermudian expatriate community, Ms Robinson and Mr Smith are both originally from Bermuda, while Mr Baker is said to be British. All three are residents of Leicester.

Earlier the Post reported that police had been called to a disturbance in the market town of Bulwell, north of the Nottingham city centre.

Witnesses described two men taking another man from a residence, forcing him into a vehicle and driving away.

The victim was found at about 1am the next day, walking in Leicester, and was treated in hospital.

The three accused were charged with an indictable offence, and have been remanded pending a May 3 appearance at Nottingham Crown Court.

According to the Post, Ms Robinson may qualify for bail in a week’s time if she is able to obtain a £10,000 surety, and surrenders her passport to police. • It is The Royal Gazette’s policy not to allow comments on stories regarding criminal court cases.
