Four men have appeared in court accused of kidnapping a woman and three children.

Zahoor Hussain, 38, Muserat Khan, 36, Mohammed Anser Khan, 31, and Ateek Khan, 27, all from West Bromwich in the West Midlands are each accused of four counts of kidnap.

The charges relate to an incident in Oswestry in Shropshire last Friday.

The men were remanded in custody by magistrates in Telford to appear at Shrewsbury Crown Court on 4 April.

Muserat Khan, of Greets Green Road, and Mohammed Khan, of Whitehall Road, are also charged with assault.

The pair, along with Mr Hussain, of Whitehall Road, and Ateek Khan, of Oak Road, were charged on Sunday, police said.

Detective Inspector Jason Everett said: "I would like to thank the public for their help so far and I would like to reassure the community that this is an isolated incident.

"Enquiries are still ongoing but I would encourage anyone who may have witnessed the incident to please contact us on 101."
