Surat police have arrested six people in connection with the kidnapping of Shakti Dhaduk, a share broker from Ahmedabad. 

The incident took place in the bustling neighbourhood of Mota Varaccha, Surat. 

According to police, the arrested individuals have been identified as Makbul Jikarbhai Solanki (Ghanchi), Sabir Sharifbhai Solanki (Ghanchi), Sohil alias Lattu alias Gattu Iqbalbhai Shaikh, Ramiz Ahmed alias Raja Khan Jamil Ahmed Pathan, Firoz Hussainbhai Gogda, and Farooq Hussainbhai Gogda. 

They were arrested on July 11 and further investigation and interrogation in the matter is on. 

The vehicles used for kidnapping were also seized

Alongside the arrest of the suspects, the police successfully seized all four vehicles utilised in the abduction. 

Various items totaling ₹25.18 lakh, including five mobile phones and a sum of cash have also been confiscated. 

The abduction took place on July 5 when Dhaduk was forcibly taken away in a car from Mota Varaccha. 

The accused then proceeded to drive the vehicle towards Pal Hotel, located near the Kamrej toll plaza. Once there, two of the four alleged kidnappers shifted Dhaduk into another car, and moved towards Ahmedabad. 

They passed through Ankleshwar, Bharuch, Nabipur, Jambusar, Borsad, and Tarapur chokdi, as they planned to ultimately transport their captive to Rajkot in yet another car. 

Kidnappers were halted by police before they reach Rajkot

However, the Surat police managed to intercept the criminals before they could reach their destination. 

Three of the accused were caught, prompting a subsequent investigation. 

It was during this process that law enforcement officials uncovered the involvement of seven additional individuals, shedding further light on the intricate web surrounding the kidnapping.
