However, the kidnappee was brought to police station Pattan. “He was thoroughly questioned and he had no justification about being kidnapped,” the police spokesman said, adding, “during investigation, the facts/circumstances came to surface that the said person had staged this whole episode of being kidnapped by himself as he has some dispute of NREGA with a local contractor/neighbor Ali Mohammad Parray.”
