Abduction charge dismissed amid fare payment doubt
A girl accused of abducting an elderly man aged 85 saw the magistrate dismiss the case after noting she paid her own return fare. She had traveled with a man known to her as a butcher in Boullee, meeting him in Perth and Sydney and later claiming the trip was only a pretense during farewell. Outside the court the girl's brother fought with the man. Fisher faced no action.
