A senior engineer with Maruti, Anil Kumar, was allegedly kidnapped from the parking lot of a hotel here on Sunday night and later robbed of Rs 40,000, the police said.
The accused — Sahil Kamboj and Aman — have been arrested and sent to judicial custody. Kamboj is an outsourced employee of the MC, while Aman is unemployed.
The victim said he and his woman friend had gone to a hotel on Sunday night for some work. When they came out around 11 pm, Kamboj and Aman were already waiting outside. The woman introduced Kamboj as her friend and the two got into his car.
“They dropped the woman at her home in Fazilpur village and then forcibly took me to some hotel near the bus stand. They beat me up, stripped me and made an objectionable video. They asked me to get Rs 2 lakh. I asked my brother to transfer the amount in my bank account. They even took my car parked outside the hotel. They wanted to kill me, but I managed to escape.”
The Gurugram police are probing the role of the woman and suspect it to be a case of honeytrap. — OC
