An investigation headed by the Divisional Crime Officer Eastern is looking into an alleged abduction case involving a 9-year-old child.
The victim is admitted at the Wainibokasi Hospital as he sustained minor scratches from the alleged incident which occurred this morning.
Police say the child claims he was abducted from outside his home early this morning by three men and forced into a waiting van where two others were waiting. His hands and feet were allegedly tied inside the van but he still managed to escape from the five by jumping out of the moving van a few metres away from his home.
Police say a thorough investigation will be conducted to verify the claims of abduction.
