Businessmen abducted in Nagaland

KOHIMA: Two businessmen were abducted by unidentified gunmen from Nagaland’s commercial town of Dimapur, police said on Sunday. Bimal Jain and Kailash Kala, both from the Marwari community, were kidnapped on Saturday morning when they were on a regular morning walk in Duncan area.

The abduction, which sources said has become a fortnightly affair, triggered panic within the harried business community. Complaints were lodged at the local police station. However, the victims’ families have not received any communication or ransom demand from the abductors, police said.

A meeting of Dimapur Chamber of Commerce and Nagaland Medicine Dealers’ Association expressed concern over frequent kidnappings of businessmen in the town and called upon police, administration, underground groups and concerned citizens to reach out and help in rescuing Mr. Jain and Mr. Kala. The business community also threatened indefinite closure of shops in Dimapur from Monday if the duo was not rescued. – PTI
