TURA, OCT 27: The Block Development Officer (BDO) of Chokpot in South Garo hills on Tuesday was allegedly kidnapped by a group of unidentified militants while he was on his way back to Tura from Chokpot.
The latest alleged kidnapping comes in the wake of another two kidnappings, one of a lecturer from Assam and another businessman from Phulbari as well as the discovery of the body of IB official Vikash Singh and cloth merchant Kamal Saha.
Due to remoteness of the terrain the kidnapping of the BDO Jude Rangku T Sangma could not be confirmed though it is suspected he has been kidnapped after his car did not reach Tura after leaving Chokpot this evening at about 4 pm.
“We are still trying to confirm whether he has been kidnapped or not. We are aware that he left his office at about 4 pm but we are not sure whether he has been kidnapped or something else. We are still awaiting confirmation though we know this much that his vehicle has not reached Tura with him”, said SP of south Garo hills Lakador Syiem.
Meanwhile news of the alleged kidnapping has caused a huge sensation with everyone asking for the immediate release of the BDO.- From Our Correspondent
