|
||
KARACHI: The counter-terrorism department on Wednesday claimed to have busted a gang involved in the recent cases of ‘short-term’ kidnapping for ransom in Karachi.
|
||
CTD DSP Raja Umer Khattab said the gang used a Vigo, a four-wheel drive vehicle, and introduced themselves as “officials of law enforcement agencies” to their prey.
|
||
The CTD received an intelligence report on April 22 that six to seven suspects were involved in the short-term kidnappings in the city, according to a CTD press release. They used a black Vigo double cabin and carried arms, walkie-talkies, handcuffs and hid their faces by using masks, the statement added.
|
||
“The kidnappers took citizens to Steel Town by posing as officials of the Federal Investigation Agency, the CTD and intelligence agencies and used to release them after taking ransom.”
|
||
Acting on a tip-off, a CTD team carried out an intelligence-based operation near Parking Plaza in Saddar and arrested four suspects — Imtiaz alias Salman, Ubaid Rehman alias Abi, Shahid alias Moosa and Saleem — and recovered snatched cell phones, three pistols, walkie-talkies, handcuffs and black colour Vigo with fake government number plate from their possession.
|
||
During interrogation, the held suspects revealed that they kidnapped a citizen, Mohammed Ismail, in PIB Colony on April 13, and took him to a warehouse in Steel Town.
|
||
They asked him about Bitcoin business and threatened him that he was involved in illegal work of Hundi/Hawala.
|
||
Thereafter, they took his iPhone and asked him that they would contact him about money later on. They dropped him on Sharea Faisal near a stop.
