A newly employed man kidnapped his employer’s three-and-a-half-year-old son from New Prabhadevi Road, but an alert policeman, with the help of a prompt phone booth owner, managed to rescue the child in less than an hour from his disappearance. Kirtik, the victim, is the son of Ramshankar Yadav, owner of Devendra Flour Mills in New Prabhadevi Road, Dadar. Yesterday around noon, Ramshankar got a call from a man, who told him that his son had been kidnapped. The kidnapper asked for a ransom of Rs 15,000 for his son’s release.
