Teenager imprisoned in horsebox and threatened by ‘man he knew well’

A TEENAGER was tied up and held prisoner in a horsebox for more than two hours while repeatedly threatened by two men.

The 18-year-old has told detectives he was brought to a farm in north Cork on the pretence of helping to move an animal for a man he knew well.

Just moments after arriving at the farm, the teenager was attacked by the middle-aged man, who then bundled him into the horsebox.
