A businessman in Athens was abducted from his house on Thursday night in Athens.

 
Three people were waiting for him outside his residence and forced him inside. When they did not find anything of considerable value, they took him with them to his office at the Kalamaki area using his car. There they forced him and the two employees they were still there, to open the business’s two safes which they emptied.
