A businessman's 19-year-old son who was abducted two days back, for a ransom of Rs two crore, was today rescued after a hot chase, police said.
Four persons, including a woman, were arrested and two cars seized, police said.
Abishek did not return home after he left for a get-together on October 3. His kidnappers soon rang up his family and demanded a ransom of Rs two crore, police said.
The boy's father Ravisundaram, however, alerted police and as per the instructions of the kidnappers, proceeded in a car to meet them at a spot with the ransom.
Special police teams tailed him as he was going to the area and soon spotted two cars following him. They cornered both vehicles, in the process of which one turned turtle.
Three of the alleged abductors in it were brought out and arrested. So too was the lady in the other car in which the boy was found.
