The victim of an alleged kidnap was shown a saw and told “his head would be cut off”, a court heard on Wednesday.
Emmet Maguire is further charged with dangerous driving, failing to stop for police and possessing a quantity of cannabis. The court heard that having been dragged from his home, the victim was forced into the rear of a van then driven around various locations during which he was struck numerous times.
The alleged abductors then abandoned the victim in a location unknown to him, where he lay badly injured until found by a passer-by who called an ambulance. Meanwhile the victim was treated in hospital for numerous injuries including multiple fractures to his spine and ribs, lacerations including two above an eye, and widespread bruising and swelling. The court heard that a witness has identified all four men exiting a van and going into one of their homes wearing bloodied clothing. They emerged a short time later in different clothes, the court heard.
