Croat father kidnaps girl for his son
Croatian Times
A man in Croatia has been sentenced to four years in prison for kidnapping a teenage girl to provide his 16-year-old son with a wife.
Bosko Djurdjevic, 53, from the northern town of Bjelovar, has been found guilty of kidnapping a 14-year-old girl from neighbouring Serbia since his 16-year-old son wanted a handsome young wife.
The father paid two other people to help him kidnap the girl in Macvanska Mitrovica in northern Serbia.
She had reportedly met the boy and allegedly wanted to marry him but then changed her mind, the daily Jutarnji List has reported.
Djurdjevic decided to help his son and took the girl in a Mercedes to Bjelovar, Croatia.
Police found the girl after a week, and she then accused the Djurdjevics of having tortured her. The girl has returned to her family in Serbia.
