Jharkhand Industrialist's Son Rescued After 2 Weeks
A young man named Kairav Gandhi, who is the son of a well-known businessman in Jamshedpur, was kidnapped on January 13.
The kidnappers demanded a lot of money for his safe return.
The police worked very hard to find him and set up special teams to search in different areas.
After 14 days, Kairav was found safe and brought back home early in the morning.
The kidnappers left him on the road and ran away because the police were getting too close.
Everyone in the city is happy that he is safe, but the police are still looking for the people who took him.
The police and local business leaders are being praised for their efforts.
Kairav Gandhi, the 24-year-old son of Jamshedpur industrialist Devang Gandhi, was kidnapped on January 13 while on his way to the office.
He was rescued safely from Barhi in Hazaribag district, Jharkhand, in the early hours of Tuesday.
The kidnappers initially demanded a ransom of Rs 5 crore, which later increased to Rs 10 crore.
The Jharkhand Police formed seven Special Investigation Teams (SITs) and mounted pressure that led to Kairav's release.
Kairav's safe return has brought relief to the city, and a manhunt is ongoing to nab the culprits.
