Four employees of Tripura Gramin Bank, who were kidnapped from Gomati district three days ago, are still untraced but police have recovered the car and the motor bike in which they were travelling.
Sub-divisional police officer of Ambassa, Pranab Debnath said the car was recovered from near Ambassa municipality office in neighbouring Dhalai district and the bike was recovered from South Maharanipur in Gomati district last evening.
The Taidu branch of Gramin Bank has been closed indefinitely after the kidnap at Taidu on Friday when the four were on way here after office hours and a notice has been put up in the bank's notice board communicating it.
Superintendent of police of Gomati district, Bijoy Debbarma said a massive search operation by police and paramilitary Tripura State Rifles (TSR) is on at Taidu and adjacent Ambassa to trace the kidnapped bank employees.
BSF was alerted so that the kidnappers cannot sneak into neighbouring Bangladesh with the captives.
State Director General of Police A K Shukla, Inspector General (Law and order), K V Srijesh and Deputy Inspector General (Southern Range) Arindam Nath yesterday visited the spot at Taidu and the adjacent areas yesterday.
