Three people are due to face trial after being accused of kidnapping a man in Suffolk.
The two men and a woman are alleged to have kidnapped a man in Brandon on May 10.
A plea and trial preparation hearing took place over Skype at Ipswich Crown Court on Tuesday afternoon.
The three defendants are Dominic McArdle, 34, of London Road, Ipswich, Selena Parker, 35, of High Street, Brandon, and Ashley Stuhler, of Glenmore Gardens, Norwich.
