Superintendent of Police, Rohtas, Satyaveer Singh told reporters in Dehri on Sone that he had received information from the Superintendent of Police of Rewa district in Madhya Pradesh that the abducted trader's family members had been asked to drop a bag containing the ransom amount from the Howrah-Mumbai mail between Mohania and Kudra stations. Accordingly, a team of police personnel boarded the train and upon noticing that a bag has been thrown out, they pulled the chain and got down and noticed that the ransom money had been picked up by two persons riding a motorcycle.
