A woman who was trapped in a bomb-filled torture chamber in Germany whilst handcuffed has made a dramatic escape.
The
victim, who is of Israeli background, was snatched off the street
whilst in Hamburg, Germany and locked in a bomb-rigged and soundproof
room.
The woman was able to escape when her captor forgot to lock the cell he had her imprisoned in.
It took the woman two hours to escape and she managed to bring police to the place of her torture.
A 30-year-old man by the name of Thomas Fischer was the unnamed woman's captor.
'(It)
was rigged up as one massive torture chamber, with this big
old-fashioned telephone kiosk soundproofed as the cell for his victim,' a
police spokesman said.
Senior public prosecutor Wilhelm Möllers
told The Sun: 'It is evident that the apartment was meant as a place of
confinement for some time.
