She was taken by force from her vehicle and driven to an undisclosed location. During her captivity, her abductors received a phone call from Ichor, who allegedly ordered that she be killed.
However, when they came across a police checkpoint, they abandoned the plan, moved to a secluded area, and assaulted her before abandoning her on the roadside, where she was found unconscious and later taken for medical treatment.
Police investigations are ongoing, and Ichor has been detained while authorities work to gather further details.
