In a heart-pounding incident that unfolded near Dakhal Lake area, a second-year BBA student narrowly escaped a kidnapping attempt, thanks to the swift response of Agra Police. The dramatic rescue operation saw the apprehension of two suspected kidnappers, uncovering a plot that sent shockwaves through the community.
Priyanka Aggarwal, a resident of Sector-49, alerted authorities after her son, 19-year-old Ishant Aggarwal, went missing. Ishant had embarked on a seemingly routine trip to visit his sister in Noida on that fateful afternoon. As hours passed with no sign of him, panic set in as Ishant’s phone mysteriously switched off.
A student studying in Pune, Ishant had returned home for the Dussehra holidays. His father is a builder. With the concerned mother filing an official complaint with the police, the officials sprang into action, launching a thorough investigation. Initial inquiries led to the revelation that Ishant had hired a driver to chauffeur him. The two had stopped at a Badkhal petrol pump for a quick pit stop, where suspicions were raised when the hired driver halted the vehicle abruptly. In an audacious move, the culprits, driving another vehicle, abducted Ishant and commandeered the car.
The case, deemed highly critical, was quickly shared with law enforcement agencies in the surrounding regions, including Delhi-NCR. It was a vigilant team from Agra’s Khandauli police station that intercepted the vehicle, marking the turning point in Ishant’s ordeal.
Startlingly, it emerged that Ishant’s very driver had plotted to abduct him. The criminals had ruthlessly bound Ishant, stashing him in the car’s trunk. The heroics of Rudrapratap, the in-charge of the Khandauli toll post, came to the forefront as he and his team bravely overpowered the accused. Ishant was freed from his nightmarish confinement.
The captured culprits were identified as the car driver, Akash Yadav, and an accomplice, Ashish Yadav. In a further shock, authorities also recovered a pistol and ammunition from the accused. This dramatic rescue mission highlights the critical role played by diligent police work, and the story serves as a stark reminder of the challenges law enforcement faces in maintaining public safety.
