Bhubaneswar: Two persons were sentenced to life imprisonment by a court in Bhubaneswar for kidnapping a man.
Additional Sessions Judge Himanshu Sekhar Mallik also imposed a fine of Rs 10,000 on each of the two convicts, Raghunatha Moharana and Kalu Charan Moharana.
They were held guilty under IPC sections 364 A (kidnapping for ransom) and were sentenced to life imprisonment.
The duo abducted one Rabindra Kumar Barik from the Pokhariput area on June 1, 2015. They demanded a ransom of Rs 10 lakh from his family.
Barik’s father registered an FIR at the Airfield police station. He was rescued the next day, and the convicts were arrested.
