Four men from West Bromwich have each been charged with four counts of kidnap in connection with the incident.

Brothers Muserat Khan, aged 36, from Greets Green Road, and Mohammed Anser Khan, 31, of Whitehall Road, appeared alongside Zahoor Hussain, 38, of Whitehall Road, and Ateek Khan, 27, of Oak Road, at Telford Magistrates Court today.

Muserat Khan and Mohammed Khan are also both accused of assault on the same date.

The defendants only spoke to confirm their name, address and date of birth.

No pleas were indicated for any of the charges.

They were represented by Mr Harmail Gill, who made a bail application on behalf of each of the men.

Magistrates refused the application and the defendants were all remanded in custody.

The case was committed to Shrewsbury Crown Court for a case management hearing on April 4.
