New details have emerged about the alleged kidnapping of former Australian test cricketer Stuart MacGill, 50, who was allegedly stripped, assaulted, and threatened at gunpoint for an hour.
In MacGill's police statement, the retired spin bowler claims he was kidnapped near his home in Sydney's north shore on April 14, strip-searched for wires and punched about eight times to his face and the back of his head, reports The Daily Telegraph.
MacGill's statement alleges the altercation happened a week after he introduced Marino Sotiropoulos (the brother of MacGill's partner, Marie O'Meagher) to a drug dealer named Sonny, a regular customer at Aristotle, the restaurant run by MacGill and O'Meagher.
