Six men have been jailed for kidnapping a man, stripping him, breaking his bones with hammers then stabbing him.

The 37-year-old victim, who has not been named, was kidnapped in Kidderminster, Worcestershire, in August last year.

Three men pleaded guilty to charges including kidnap, false imprisonment and causing grievous bodily harm.

The motive for the attack was a debt "in the region of £40,000" owed by the victim after a business deal, police said.

West Mercia Police said the victim's "terrifying ordeal" began when he was kidnapped from outside his home.

He was assaulted and bundled into a vehicle by Tariq Mahmood and Murray and driven by Watters to a storage container in Coleshill, police said.

He was stripped naked and beaten with hammers, suffering two broken ankles, a broken arm and cheek bone, a spokesman said.

Police said the victim was moved from the container the following day to an unknown location where he was repeatedly stabbed, then taken to an address on Sycamore Road, Handsworth where he was left in the boot of a vehicle for hours.

He was eventually released on 5 August and dumped naked in a street in Birmingham.

Det Supt Paul Williamson said: "In this case [the victim] was lucky to escape alive, but has suffered life-changing psychological and physical injuries.

Had a friend from Kidderminster. He was married nine times, two of those bigamous. His father murdered a servant girl he got pregnant. Not quite the quiet west country town they want you to think it is!
