Abduction allegation appears untrue

Auckland police believe a woman who claimed she was abducted and set on fire, made it all up.

The inquiry into the alleged kidnapping is on-going, but Detective Sergeant Brett Batty is confident there was no abduction.

Earlier this month the woman called police claiming she had been abducted in her own vehicle, then she and the car were doused in petrol and set alight.

Police say the woman is still in hospital suffering from burns received when her car was set on fire.
