The police had surprised them in the middle of "work" Saturday night, in La Sauvagère, a city in the southern districts of Marseille. Four people, including a woman, aged 19 to 21, have been indicted on charges of kidnapping and sequestration in organized gang, attempted kidnapping in organized gang and drug trafficking, announced Thursday, the prosecutor's office of Marseille.

Three of the four individuals were arrested Saturday night shortly after police officers on patrol caught them trying to get a 25-year-old man into the trunk of a vehicle. The investigation in flagrance made it possible to identify the fourth person indicted, a 19-year-old woman and "a second victim who filed a complaint for acts of violence, threats and kidnapping that would have been perpetrated in the same context," adds the prosecutor's office.
