It may be recalled that K Madhusudhan, the victim was allegedly kidnapped by a rowdy sheeter, Venkata Hemanth Kumar who was an acquaintance. Madhusudhan met Hemanth Kumar in order to finalise a deal worth Rs. 2.3 crores, which he then realised was a trap to loot money. A total of Rs 12 lakhs were scammed out of the victim’s bank account in multiple transactions according to reports.
