Watch the moment three kidnappers, who lured an Israeli record producer to a rural cottage in Wales, were found hiding in a field and arrested.

Faiz Shah, 23, Mohammad Comrie, 23, and Elijah Ogunnubi-Sime, 30, planned the crime on a Telegram group chat, where they discussed what they needed to commit the crime and how to launder the money they intended to extort from victim Itay Kashti.

Swansea Crown Court heard Mr Kashti was targeted in August 2024 because he was Israeli, in a crime motivated by political and religious reasons, as well as money.

All three have now been given sentences of eight years and one month.
