Less than a month after his marriage, a man allegedly faked his own kidnapping in a film style in an attempt to dissociate from his wife. The incident was reported from the Burla area in Sambalpur district. The Burla police arrested the person and his sibling for the fake abduction.
According to reports, Pinku Singh of Goshala under the Burla police limits decided to marry his ladylove of the same locality after staying in a relationship with the young woman since a long time. On May 30, the couple left their houses and tied the knot in a court in Bhadrak district on June 20. After the marriage, the couple returned to Burla and started living together in a rented a house. On July 12, Pinku had visited a shop with his wife when two unidentified persons allegedly kidnapped him in a car. Left with no option, the newlywed woman informed about the incident to her father and later lodged a complaint at the Burla police station suspecting involvement of her husband’s family members behind his abduction. Based on the complaint, the police registered a case and initiated an investigation. During the probe, police found an unexpected scoop that surprised all.
Police sources said that Pinku was under pressure from his family as he had married the girl who was not from their caste. To get out of the situation, he decided to leave his wife forever. He plotted the kidnapping conspiracy with support of his younger brother Bikash Singh and one of his friends. As per plan, he staged his own kidnapping drama, but that led to his arrest.
