        Patna,(BiharTimes):   Children continue to die at the hands of kidnappers in Bihar. This time it   happened in Patna’s posh colony. The body of   10-year-old Rishi, a Class-IV student of Mount Bethany Public School here, was   recovered from Pothi under the Masaurhi subdivision of Patna district on Wednesday.  |  Rishi of Indiranagar   (Kankerbagh Colony) was kidnapped on Monday while returning home from school.  An FIR was lodged in   this connection on the same day.  Surprisingly, it was   the neighbour, Bittu, who masterminded the kidnapping. He was arrested on   Wednesday but only after the boy was killed. According to DSP   Sadar Rashid Zaman the kidnappers had demanded Rs 10 lakh as ransom for his   release on the night he was kidnapped even though they had killed the boy by   that time. Rishi’s father Vimal   Kumar said the kidnappers first killed his son and then made calls for ransom   amount. When the news of   Rishi’s murder reached Patna agitated people raided the house of Bittu and held   his mother captive. They charged that she had prior information about the boy’s   kidnapping. When the Kankarbagh Police reached the spot, a scuffle broke out   between the locals and the policemen who tried to free Bittu's mother from their   captivity. The Kankerbagh police had to retreat from the spot.  The situation was   brought under control after additional police forces were called in from the   Patrakarnagar police station and other police   stations. The people also   blocked the NH-30 near Jaganpura and demanded institution of an FIR against   Bittu’s mother and her subsequent arrest.      comments... 
      Well, I remember old days when each and every kidnap was   referred to jungle raj effect. Last 6 months number of reports has been   published, at least on Bihar times where kidnapped kid was   murdered. Not even a single national media seems to be worried.      Prashant Bangalore   |
