History and future of serial abduction at southern foothill settlements of GNH country


- 5
kidnap cases within one year duration.
- 3 victims kidnapped from within the Bhutanese
jurisdiction and rest 2 from Indian jurisdiction.
- All kidnapping occurred during day time.
- Ransom was paid without much investigation
during first kidnap case.
- Police couldn't do much to solve first
kidnapping case.
- Kidnappers confident must have boosted since there was no concrete case investigation as it
was a cross border problem involving two different jurisdictions.
- 2nd kidnapping occurred and
ransom was paid.
- But at least up to certain extend police
could confirm the suspects but nothing major could be done.
- Kidnappers must have got morally motivated as they could earn easy money through the huge
sum of ransom paid by the family of the victims without much intervention from
the law enforcer of two jurisdictions.
- Goons must have started targeting
Bhutanese as a easy prey for easy money making business as our government couldn't do much in earlier kidnapping case rather than compromising in paying ransom
demanded.
- All formal 4 kidnap cases landed up paying
ransom and same might happen with the fifth which is in demand of Rs.2.5M as a
ransom if government of two jurisdictions doesn't take it seriously.
- If such problems are not tackled seriously at
present juncture then definitely kidnappers will continue targeting Bhutanese as an easy prey and
it will flourish henceforth.
put up nicely, with simple graphs.
ReplyDeleteWell, the issue is really concerning and harrowing. May the govts deal with it seriously.
I feel Sarpang Dzongkhag has a potential to become one of the commercial n industrial district in Bhutan with vast flat area. But should incidences of kidnapping continue then who the hell 'll like to invest out there. Future of the dzongkhag 'll b doomed if our government doesn't deal it seriously when the problem is in emerging stage. Hope government is working out in this matter...
DeleteYeah, need serious actions.
