"The girl had planned with her lover about the whole drama to show that she was a kidnapping victim and to hoodwink her family. Her boyfriend's house was used as her hideout to avoid her family and enforcement from finding her," he said.
It was also believed that the girl was actually pregnant based on her physical conditions when she was found on Dec 6, but police could not confirm itas they have not received an official medical report.
