Itanagar: In a swift operation conducted by the Itanagar police, a man who was abducted earlier on Monday was rescued. Three suspects have been apprehended by the police.

According to the FIR received by the authorities, the victim, identified as Reri Boje, an assistant engineer (AE) with the rural works department (RWD), was forcibly abducted by three unknown individuals who were traveling in a white car.
