Eight suspects have been arrested after a 43-year-old kidnapping victim was rescued from a room at Mzimhlophe Hostel in Soweto.
The man was abducted in Johannesburg by an armed group of four suspects while travelling from work with his wife more than a week ago.
Police spokesperson Col Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi said the group was travelling in a Toyota Quantum near Booysens, Joburg south.
