The Koramangala police are baffled over a strange case, when a software engineer barged into the station on Sunday afternoon complaining that his friend had been kidnapped by his business partner. The complainant, Ahmed Sanoop, told the police that his friend, Vineeth Vardhan, who had gone to Hosur, called him to inform that his former business partner, identified as Edwin Prashanth, had kidnapped him and was harassing him to pay a ransom of ₹40 lakh. The police tried to reach him but could not, following which a case under Section 364A (kidnapping for ransom) under the IPC was registered.More Related News
