Hyderabad, October 19: The employer of an engineer, who was kidnapped by suspected NDFB militants in Assam, today said they had not received any ransom demand even as Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah asked his Assamese counterpart Tarun Gogoi to set up a special team to trace him.
The city-based Gyatri PCI (JB) company said it had not received any ransom demand from the captors for the release of P Krishna Rao who was abducted on October 16 in Kokrajhar district.
Rao, the company’s project manager, was engaged in work when five youths, riding motorcycles and brandishing firearms, kidnapped him from the construction site on the National Highway at Joypur.
The wife of the engineer said her husband’s employer had informed her that no demand for ransom had been made so far as Krishna’s son and daughter appealed to the abductors to set free their father unharmed
