Amy Winehouse is the target of British criminals kidnapping. Words are spreading that the troubled singer has been threatened with a kidnapping plot that is made by the prisoners at her husband's jail, London's Pentonville Prison.
Allegedly, the criminals demanded Winehouse's man, Blake Fielder-Civil who is jailed for the account of perverting justice, to give them ransom as much as 200,000 dollars/100,000 pounds or they would abducted the British star. The threat reportedly terrified Fielder-Civil as he sent a frantic warning to Winehouse stating, "Be on your guard and stay safe."
To News of the World, an insider revealed, "Blake's petrified. He's living in fear for Amy's life AND his own. At first he thought the guys in here were just trying their luck but the threats have got really bad. He's now under no illusions and convinced they'll go through with what they say. They've ordered Blake to pay the 100 grand into a secret bank account within the next few days or else...Amy will be snatched and harmed. She's at her weakest right now, and what with her wandering the streets in the dead of night she's at massive risk. Blake knows it'll be easy to bundle her off in a car without anyone batting an eyelid."
Prior to the kidnap threat, Winehouse was arrested and being questioned by the police regarding the suspicion that she was involved in her husband's case. The 'Rehab' singer was arrested on Tuesday, December 18 at London's Shoreditch Police Station and was released on bail later that day.
