Why No Charge Of Kidnapping?
Yesterday near where I live two teenagers forced their way into a woman's car and forced her to drive them about a mile before they let her go and continued on in it.
One of them has been charged with a litany of offences, but not kidnapping. Does that crime require a demand for a ransom?

from the CPS guidelines
R v Dzokamshure [2009] 1 Cr. App. R. (S.) 112
Appellant's relationship with a woman for six months had ended. Months later he went to her home, broke his way in, punched her, dragged her out and forced her into her car. Another man was seated therein. The appellant drove the car on the motorway and prevented her from answering a call on her mobile phone. Eventually he stopped on a slip road and allowed her to get out. Previous good character. Guilty plea. The victim had indicated that that she did not want him to serve a custodial sentence and was unwilling to give evidence. Sentence of 18 months' imprisonment upheld.
