The wife of a Jogheshwari-based businessman, who was recently kidnapped, managed to give her husband's kidnappers a run for their money, thanks to the crime shows on television she had been binging on. According to the police, after observing that the modus operandi of the kidnappers was similar to that on crime shows, the woman, instead of being bullied by the kidnappers, decided to play along and get them arrested. The incident dates back to October 31, when businessman Bhavin Shah received a call from one of the accused, who said he had a good business deal for him. The two then agreed to meet at around 3 pm near Andheri RTO. On the pretext of taking him to a factory, the accused got Shah to sit in his car. The victim was then taken to an unidentifiable spot in Nalasopara and held hostage.
