Mumbai: A married Indian woman was kidnapped in Rajasthan and sold off for Rs 100,000 by her friend.
The woman was promised a good job by her friend and handed over to the buyers with the help of a couple of more ‘friends’ who run a marriage bureau and provide wives to men in Rajasthan and Gujarat, emirates 247 reports.
The woman left her marital home with her three-year-old child in the company of her good friend. A few days later, a man called Ali went to the woman’s home to return the kid to the family. He claimed he had no information about the child’s mother.
Ali was arrested by the police for being part of the kidnap controversy. He broke down finally and admitted that the child’s mother had been sold to a businessman who resided in a nearby town. The kidnappers received around Rs 100,000 for the completed deal.
The co-conspirators are still at large, while a team of police officials were sent to the other town to bring back the kidnapped woman.
The woman’s husband is in a state of shock. The couple had tied the knot five years ago. He works in a different city and he was a little surprised when his wife called him up one day to tell him that she was offered a good job in a bank with a great salary and she would be taking up on her friend’s offer.
While the woman kept in touch with her husband, her calls were abrupt and every time she called it was from a different number.
One day, he received a call and was told that his wife had been sold to a businessman for Rs 100,000. The husband quickly informed the police as he suspected foul play.
