# Crypto Expert Kidnapped Near Troyes, Four Suspects Arrested
A cryptocurrency specialist was kidnapped on Friday and held captive in the suburbs of Troyes before being freed by law enforcement. Four suspected kidnappers were arrested.

Just days after the dramatic kidnapping of David Belland, co-founder of Ledger, a company specializing in cryptocurrency, a similar incident occurred in the Aube region, according to a source close to the case. According to our sources, confirming those of the JDD, four men were arrested on Friday evening in Sainte-Savine, on the outskirts of Troyes, following the kidnapping and detention of a 30-year-old man, described as a "minor in cryptocurrency."
The incident began when the victim, who earns a living by validating online cryptocurrency transactions, went to a "professional meeting" in Sainte-Savine. There, the thirty-year-old fell into an ambush, according to a police source. Four individuals were present for the meeting, including a client with whom the victim had a commercial dispute.
The thirty-year-old was then held captive in a house, and his abductors demanded 20,000 euros for his release. Despite the circumstances, the victim managed to alert a friend, who then notified the police.
Upon their arrival around 10 PM at the house, the police found the victim in good health. The four perpetrators of the abduction were arrested. The prosecutor's office in Troyes confirmed these arrests, but provided no further details at this stage. An investigation has been opened for attempted extortion, and the Troyes police station has been assigned the case, according to the prosecutor.
"In its current state, no parallel can be drawn with the acts committed against Mr. Balland," the prosecutor warned.
On Tuesday, David Balland, co-founder and former employee of Ledger, a company specializing in the security of crypto assets, and his companion, were kidnapped from their home in Méreau (Cher). They have since been freed, and seven people have been detained, suspected of involvement in the kidnapping and detention, including acts of torture, of the co-founder of Ledger.
