Muslims Attempt to Kidnap British Girl

(October 2025)

A terrifying kidnapping attempt was captured on CCTV in broad daylight on Ladypool Road in Birmingham. The incident occurred just after 4pm on Saturday, when two men tried to force a 15-year-old girl into a white car. The footage shows the girl being grabbed and pulled toward the back seat of a parked white Dacia as she struggles to free herself on the pavement.

As the men prepare to drive off, several bystanders intervene. They form a protective barrier around the car and manage to stop it from leaving, effectively saving the girl from being abducted.

Two men, Mohammed Ali, 49, and his son Luqman Ali, 20, have since been charged with kidnapping. Mohammed is also accused of false imprisonment and assault. The pair have been remanded in custody and are due to appear at Birmingham Magistrates’ Court.

West Midlands Police say the investigation is ongoing and appeal to anyone with information, including mobile phone or dashcam footage, to contact them via 101 and reference 20/406171/25. Specialists are supporting the girl following the incident.
