PARIS (Reuters) -Twenty-five people will be brought before an investigating judge on Friday for attempting to kidnap the daughter of a wealthy crypto businessman and for criminal conspiracy, the Paris court said.
Videos of the brazen kidnapping attempt, which took place in broad daylight on a Parisian street, were filmed and disseminated on social media, and showed three masked men wrestling with two people while their getaway van idled nearby.
It was the third violent attack targeting crypto players and their families in recent months.
