NEW DELHI: A day after the kidnapping of three-year-old Anant, his father Naresh Gupta, CEO of Adobe India, appealed to the kidnappers to release the boy.
 
He also appealed to the media to leave the family alone for Anant’s sake. “The life of my son is in danger and I appeal to the media to apply restraint in reporting about it,” he said. Anant was kidnapped while waiting for his school bus outside his Sector 15A home in NOIDA.
 
Senior Superintendent of Police SK Bhagat of the Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force reached NOIDA on Tuesday with a team to aid the local police. The Delhi police’s crime branch and special cell also got into the act, with an officer saying there was “a chance the abductors would get into Delhi”.
 
While police and family denied receiving a ransom call, news agencies quoted unnamed sources as saying a call was received on Tuesday morning.
 
Police said investigations are being complicated by the fact that kidnappings are now committed by a number of groups working together. One gang picks up the ‘target’, another keeps him in custody, and a third negotiates the ransom, said an officer.
 
“Gone are the days when a single gang operated in kidnapping cases,” said the officer.
