Africa-Press<\/a> – Mozambique<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Last Thursday, five friends decided to travel to Johannesburg to attend a wedding \u2013 on Saturday. The group planned to cross the border just before it closed at 10.00 p.m..<\/p>\n

Among the group was Jair Abdula, son of businessman Salimo Abdula, the owner of Intellec Holdings. Some continue to link him, business-wise, with Armando Guebuza, but he no longer has any relationship with the former president.<\/p>\n

According to a source close to the family, the friends had agreed that only they would know at what time they would cross the Ressano Garcia border, and which route they would take to Johannesburg.<\/p>\n

But the trip was interrupted before its destination, by a false \u201croadblock\u201d, and the five taken into captivity. On Friday, three of those kidnapped were released, and a fourth on Saturday, leaving only Jair Abdula in captivity.<\/p>\n

The identity of the four friends of the son of the president of the CPLP Business Confederation is not yet known. Carta was similarly unable to determine the amount of the ransom.<\/p>\n

By Saturday, Salimo Abdula was already on his way back from Dubai, where he was attending Dubai Expo 2020 in the company of his wife, Maria Assun\u00e7\u00e3o Abdula.<\/p>\n

Two things seem strange to the family: the probable leaking, on the part of one of the five, of the secret road trip to the kidnappers, and the orchestration of a road block in the middle of South Africa by the kidnappers, which shows their power of manipulation.<\/p>\n

The Facebook page of the \u2018Justi\u00e7a Nacional\u2018 \u2013 generally well-informed on matters of criminal investigation and criminal execution, being a page supposedly fed by malcontents in the ranks of Sernic and Sernap \u2013 said on Friday that \u201cthe PRM already had information about the abduction and steps were being taken in coordination with the South African Police in an attempt to locate Bakhir Ayob, the son-in-law of Momade Bashir Suleimane, as there are suspicions that he may be involved in this abduction\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u2018Justi\u00e7a Nacional\u2019 observes that Bakhir Ayob fled Mozambique in 2013 and is rumoured to be in South Africa. He was reportedly accused in Mozambique of being the mastermind behind a number of kidnappings and is said to have fled the country as a result of there being several arrest warrants out against him.<\/p>\n
