A Brazilian woman was kidnapped and demanded Bitcoin ransom, four suspects were arrested.

Golden Finance reports that police in Recife, Brazil, have arrested four suspects in the kidnapping of a retired professor's daughter. The incident occurred in March of this year, and the victim's son (who works in Portugal related to Crypto Assets) paid a ransom of 5 Bitcoins, worth approximately 3.3 million reais (around 600,000 USD) at the time. Police stated that the suspects included two men and two women, who had tracked the victim's son through social media before the kidnapping. This incident reflects that kidnappings and Crypto Assets ransom cases are not isolated incidents globally.
