Banaswadi sub-division police rescued an 11-year-old boy who was kidnapped for a Rs 50 lakh ransom within hours of the incident.
The boy identified as Dhammadeep, a class 5 student was reportedly playing near his house on Tuesday evening when a woman lured him to come along with her on the pretext of taking him to a swimming pool.
The lady, however, took him to a farmhouse near Jigani where her brother-in-law works as a security guard. The boy’s parents — Subhash, a BMTC bus driver and Ashwini got a call for the ransom money at around 8.30 pm and they were threatened against approaching the police.
The parents lodged a complaint with Hennur police at around 9.30 pm whereafter two teams were formed to trace the boy.
After analyzing the CCTV footage and call details of the person who made the ransom call, the police tracked down the abductors to the farmhouse.
As they got no response at the farmhouse gate, the police scaled the 15-feet compound wall and rescued the boy. The guard who was drunk at that time was arrested while the police are yet to trace the woman.
