Abstract:

Research has demonstrated that co-offending dyads and groups often use more violence than individual offenders. Despite the attention given to co-offending by the research community, kidnapping remains understudied.

Public fear of stranger kidnapping warrants further examination of this specific crime, including differences between those committed by solo and multi-offender groups.

Nigeria has been thrown into a quagmire by a vicious cycle manifested in different forms of criminalities. The appalling carnage perpetrated by Boko Haram in the north and the wanton mayhem unleashed by militants in the Niger Delta are typical instances. Today, kidnapping for ransom which started from the Niger Delta region has taken center stage, especially in the northern part of the country. Even though the phenomenon of kidnapping has gained traction among local and international scholars, the ethnic dimension of kidnappings, particularly in Nigeria remains largely overlooked.

This article examines whether a terrorist group’s ideology has a meaningful impact on its involvement in kidnapping. On a global level, incident data (1970-2010) indicate that in the past decade the number of kidnappings by terrorist groups has increased, while Muslim extremists have replaced left-wing/Marxist revolutionaries as the world’s leading kidnappers. However, when we incorporate data about the attributes of terrorist organizations and their operating environments, this analysis indicates that ideology does not play an important role in determining the likelihood of a group’s involvem

The primary difference between the two scenarios is that the location of the victim(s) as well as that of the perpetrator(s) is unknown in kidnappings. As a result, many of the components of crisis negotiation that have been so successful in resolving barricad

However, it has taken on a new dimension in the 21st century with the development of kidnapping for ransom. Kidnapping for ransom is now a lucrative business in many nations of the world, and has grown particularly worrisome in Nigeria, due to the country’s weak security system.
