		</div><p>Bernie Ecclestone&#8217;s mother-in-law, who had been kidnapped in Brazil for a ransom of £28 million, has been freed, according to police.</p>
<p>Aparecida Schunck, 67, the mother of the Formula One boss&#8217; wife Fabiana Flosi, 38, was abducted from her home in Sao Paulo more than a week ago.</p>
<p>Brazilian police said they rescued Ms Schunck on Sunday from two men on the outskirts of Sao Paulo.</p>
<p>She was was not harmed in the operation conducted by Sao Paulo&#8217;s anti-kidnapping division.</p>
<p>Elisabete Sato of Sao Paulo police told the BBC that the ransom, thought to have been the largest in Brazilian history, had not been paid.</p>
<p>She said there had been a major police operation to free the victim and two suspects were arrested.</p>
<p>Mr Ecclestone, 85, married Ms Flosi in 2012, three years after meeting her at the Brazilian Grand Prix.</p>
<p>The Brazilian magazine Veja had reported that the ransom for Ms Flosi&#8217;s mother had been demanded in pounds sterling and divided into four bags of cash.</p>
<p>Brazil is hosting this year&#8217;s Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro which start next week.</p>
<p>Security has emerged as the top concern, including violence possibly spilling over from Rio&#8217;s hundreds of slums.</p>
<p>Authorities have said they will be prepared and that some 85,000 police and soldiers will be patrolling during the competitions.</p>
