Abducted Union Minister's son escapes

Chennai, Feb 27 (UNI) Dasari Prabhu, the kidnapped son of Union Minister of State for Coal and popular Director Dasari Narayana Rao, today managed to give a slip to his abductors in neighbouring Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, and reached the city.

Dasari Prabhu told a private Telugu News channel that the kidnap was stage-managed by his wife Susheela, who had been harassing him over property rights. He was abducted by a group of people close to his wife at Chittoor, yesterday, he claimed.

He said he went to Chittoor along with his wife, mother-in-law Savitramma and her son to call on his ailing brother-in-law. After checking into a hotel, a six-member gang, under the pretext of discussing some urgent issues, abducted him and took him in a waiting car.

Chittoor Police have registered a case on the basis of a complaint from Susheela.

He was held hostage in a house in Chittoor, from where he managed to escape and reach Chennai, Mr Dasari Prabhu said.

He said he would soon file a petition in a Hyderabad court, seeking divorce from Susheela.
