CAUGHT RED HANDED

Chloe Ayling ‘kidnapper’ Lukasz Herba ‘told his mum to destroy evidence linking him to the crime’ in recorded prison phone call

THE suspected kidnapper accused of abducting Brit model Chloe Ayling rang his mum from jail to ask her to destroy evidence incriminating him, it has been claimed.

Lukasz Herba, 30, was held after Chloe, 20, of Coulsdon, South London, was snatched when she turned up for a fake photo shoot.

The mum-of-one claims she was drugged and kept hostage in an isolated farmhouse for six days before being freed.

Polish-born Herba – who is on trial – has fully denied the charges, insisting the whole thing was staged in a bid to raise her profile.

But he may have incriminated himself in a telephone call to his mum from jail in Milan, according to the Mail.

The call – in which he allegedly asked her to delete emails and dump a car used in the abduction – is said to have been recorded by prison bosses and will be used as evidence in his trial.

He can reportedly be heard telling his mother how to access his encrypted email account and gives her the password “Twat Twat 1”.

After telling her to get rid of a number of emails he also instructs her to make sure they are permanently deleted by clearing out the computer’s recycle bin, it is claimed.

He also reportedly tells her to call his older brother Michal and ask him to dispose of a car they allegedly used in the kidnapping.

Polish cops seized the computer which has now been forensically examined by police in Italy to try to recover the deleted files, the report claimed.

A transcript of the call is said to have been used as part of the extradition hearing at Westminster Magistrate's Court in September.

Chloe says she was offered for sale as a sex slave on the dark web before being released when her captor discovered she has a young child.

Police allege the Herba brothers lured Chloe to a fake modelling job before giving her ketamine and bundling her into a car.

Lukasz was arrested after delivering her to the British Consulate in Milan on July 17 – six days after she was allegedly kidnapped.

Michal was arrested by the National Crime Agency (NCA) on a European Arrest Warrant issued by the Italian authorities in August.

He is currently fighting extradition from the UK and a British judge has previously said he should fly to Italy to join his sibling to face the allegations.
