I happen to be living in a part of the world that used to be relatively quite and not very hazardous so to speak. However in the past four-five years there has been an ever increasing crime level. A crime boom of sorts. Among the various crimes that are happening more and more often is kidnapping. All of the sudden this form of crime that was literally unheard of in this country is starting to show up in headlines monthly if not weekly. I am not a high profile person in any regard so I don't believe that I would be a likely target, but all this stills gets me thinking.
Since there certainly are some members here who are/were members of LE organizations or some form of security service that may know more about crime than me, I would like to ask the following question: According to the information YOU guys handle, are your chances of survival greater if you make an attempt to escape/resist the abduction or are you safer playing along and wait to be rescued or released post-ransom delivery?
To put things in context most if not all kidnappings involving adult victims in this country go down in a vehicular interception. Basically the victim is driving around and all of the sudden another vehicle(s) intercept them and armed men come out and demand the victim to get out. If faced with this situation what course of action would yield the highest probability of survival?
Of course there are a million and one variables but what usually works out best? Does any one have any statistics on this?
