Manpada police on Saturday arrested three men and two women from Surat for kidnapping a 12-year-old boy from Dombivli.
 
The accused had kidnapped the boy on November 9 and had demanded Rs 1.5 crore ransom from his father, a well-known businessman. The arrested accused were produced before the court on Sunday and have been remanded in police custody till November 18. 

The incident took place on November 9 when the boy left for a class around 8 am. He generally used to return home by 10 am, but as he did not return that day, his family members started to look for him.
