The woman, along with a 27-year-old man and his 30-year-old wife, were charged earlier this month with kidnapping and resisting arrest after RCMP responded to a crash in Nisku, just south of Edmonton.

Officers said they found several naked people in a car that had rammed a truck.

Others have said the accused and alleged victims know each other as neighbours and members of the same church.

A 13-year-old girl and her 15-year-old sister, the daughters of the woman facing the most charges, were also found naked in the car but were not charged.

The accused, who have been released from custody, cannot be identified due to a publication ban.

The case returns to Leduc court Dec. 21.
