Swiss police have recovered two dogs that were abducted in exchange for more than 80,000 pounds of ransom.
Zurich officials said that the bolonaka -breed dog was abducted from the house of a 59 -year -old man in Shilran town near Zurich, when the owner was not at home. When the owner returned home, he received a ransom note, demanding a 1 million Swiss francs (pound 880,000) in exchange for the return of dogs.
The troubled owner immediately contacted Zurich police, after which an investigation and a weekly search began.
The 30 -year -old Norwegian suspect, who is considered involved in the abduction, was arrested at Zurich Airport.
Another 38 -year -old suspect was also detained with the help of Poland police.
The dogs were safely returned to their owner on Friday. Bolonka, which is a Russian -breed small dog, is usually sold for £ 1,200 to 2,300 pounds.

The 30 -year -old suspect is in custody while Poland authorities are investigating further against the 38 -year -old accused.
Investigations are still ongoing and the name of any accused has not yet been disclosed.
The incident happened at a time when a couple recently met their stolen labrador dog in the UK about 10 years later.
The dog named Dizzy was stolen from Rita and Philip Potter’s courtyard in November 2017. After that, a long search series began, including a campaign on social media and a request from the government to demand action against pet theft. This search eventually led to a pleasant end with the help of RSPCA.
Dizzy, who is now 13 years old, was searched by an RSPCA inspector in Somerset 200 miles away during a routine investigation.
