Gurugram: Two persons including a nurse aspiring to be a doctor has been arrested for allegedly threatening a prominent doctor based in Gurugram of kidnapping his son if he doesn't pay Rs 1 crore.

On receiving the threat, the doctor registered a complaint with the police. Subsequently, the phone number from which the threat was received was put under surveillance and one of accused, a 33-year-old man was arrested, Gurugram Police PRO Subhash Bokan informed PTI.

During interrogation, the accused man revealed that he was lured by the nurse to make the call and promised him Rs 20 lakh. Investigation revealed that the woman, who had worked under the doctor, had planned to make the threat as she wanted the money to get admission in a medical college.

Since after the threat, the doctor had not made any attempt to pay up, the nurse reportedly decided to meet the man recently and chose a place to keep a watch on the doctor's son. As she was not aware about the arrest of the accomplice, officials of Gurugram police caught her when the nurse arrived to meet him.

“The extortion call was made on July 8 and we put the phone number of the accused under surveillance. It was found that a woman was behind the threatening call. We strongly suspected known persons behind the extortion attempt. The complainant had told us that he had hired a nurse, some 10 months ago to take care of his elderly mother. The nurse was not happy when she left the job," the PRO informed IANS.
