Shivpuri (Madhya Pradesh): Rajasthan police have made a big revelation in the kidnapping case of a girl student from Madhya Pradesh preparing for NEET in Kota. The police on Wednesday informed that the girl was not actually kidnapped and had conspired with her two friends to get money from her father as she wanted to go abroad, much like some movie plot.

SP Amrita Duhan told media that the student had come to Kota with her mother on August 3, 2023. After checking every fact in the case, it has become clear that no untoward incident of any kind has happened with the student. She was with her friends.

The police have not found the student and one of her friends yet. They have been appealed to contact the nearest police station wherever they are, as the family and the administration are worried about the safety of the student.

20-year-old Kavya Dhakad’s kidnapping case came to light on Monday after her father claimed to have received messages asking for Rs 30 lakh ransom to release his daughter .
