Yes, there is a method to verify your vote. But as i said, e-voting is in advance only. On the voting day only traditional voting is possible, traditional vote voids e-vote. E-vote can be changed only when e-voting is active, not later.
And yes, one could prevent someone to go and vote traditionally, but this is out of the scope of e-voting. There are myriad of methods how to manipulate traditional voting. And your hypothetical case is really a kidnapping, criminal offence, not scalable.

No, there is no need for kidnapping. Human relationships are complicated and pressure can be applied in many ways. A spouse, father, or other person can influence people in his direct vicinity. The secret ballot and requirment that only one person enters the voting booth at a time ensures that that influence does not extend to the election result.
