Shannon 'kidnapped and drugged'
Updated on 12 November 2008
A court hears schoolgirl Shannon Matthews was drugged as part of a "dishonest and wicked" kidnap plot.
Shannon was drugged, imprisoned and probably tied up to prevent her escaping the prosecution claimed at the trial, so that the pair could claim a reward when they eventually freed her.
The schoolgirl was fed temazepam tablets and a strap hanging from the roof was likely to have been used to restrain her.
