Engineer kidnapped in GH

TURA, MAY 4: Border Area Development Organization (BADO) junior engineer Aladdin Sangma was kidnapped on Monday from Dambuk Aga near Rongara in South Garo hills at around 8:30 am. Sangma was with his wife in his car when he was ordered to come out of his car by two unidentified AK- 47s wielding militants.

Police have asked the BSF to seal the Garo hills- Bangladesh border so that the kidnappers do not smuggle Sangma into the neighbouring country even as police search operations have been launched. So far the kidnappers have not contacted the engineer’s family for ransom. – From Our Correspondent
