Additional District Judge Shameem Ahmad Ansari held Savitri Devi, Ganesh Verma, Ishtiyaq, Amresh, Sanjay, Javed and Veer Bahadur guilty of kidnapping the 11-year-old Pritam and pronounced the verdict on them, prosecution sources said here.
The court also slapped a fine of Rs 5,000 on each of the accused.
The victim, who had gone to market along with one of the accused, was kidnapped by him and six other people followed by a ransom call to his parents for his release, they said.
However, the boy was rescued from Parbandarpur on April 27 this year and subsequently a case was registered against all the accused.
