An attempted kidnapping in Matola’s Malhampsene neighbourhood on Tuesday morning (22-07) ended in an intense exchange of gunfire between the would-be kidnappers and victims.
Witnesses report that the incident began at around 7:00 am, when armed individuals attempted to kidnap a businessman of Chinese origin, who was accompanied by another businessman, moments after he left his residence.
The victims were attacked by men travelling in two vehicles. The pair reacted quickly and began shouting for help, which alerted nearby residents.
A shootout then ensued, forcing the suspects to abandon the attempt, leaving behind two vehicles, one of which was later intentionally set on fire by locals.
During the shootout, a pregnant woman was hit in the head by a stray bullet. She was immediately taken to the emergency room at the nearest hospital, where she is receiving intensive medical care.
Authorities are investigating the case, asking the public for cooperation in identifying those involved.
