Five suspects were arrested, one is a woman.
The gang’s ringleader Adeel used his wife’s Facebook account and mobile phone to befriend boys before kidnapping them.
They were caught after Mohsin Waqar issued a request about his brother’s kidnapping at the Saddar Police Station.
The City Police Officer (CPO) ordered the police to trace the suspects’ call when they called to demand ransom for the brother’s return.
The suspects took Rs1,700,000 as ransom and released Mohsin’s brother.
SHO Asif Nadeem's son Omar, constable Muhammad Amir and the son of a Numberdaar were among the arrested.
The police said that all suspects belonged to influential families.

@Asad: Now thats funny! Sad world when people don't know who their real friends are, some may not even have any.
ask the Jatois and Talpurs to intervene and get the arrested out for Almighty's-Sake!
We hear news of arrests of these crooks but never hear about their punishment. I wonder if these criminals ever get prosecuted and get punishment?
"The police said that all suspects belonged to influential families", so it means all will be released soon!
I thought all those girls added me on Facebook cuz they liked me!
