French police seize two in bid to ransom missing Philips executive
In Paris, two men were arrested and questioned over the abduction of Louis Hazan, 53, European head of Philips Records. Six gunmen seized Hazan at a New Year’s Eve meeting, loaded him into a wicker case, and demanded ransom while authorities vow no deals to curb a rising wave of kidnappings. A ransom scout and staged play acted by undercover detectives foiled the handover at Bastille Square. Hazan’s family pleaded amid government insistence on hardline anti-kidnap policies following similar demands for other victims.
