“The rescue team of Hunters/ Vigilante and Anti- Kidnapping Squad of the Police Force never rested in combing the forests till the last batch of the abductees regained their freedom on Monday.”

He disclosed that no ransom was offered for any of the abductees despite persistent daily demands from the kidnappers.
