PESHAWAR, April 13: Unidentified persons allegedly kidnapped a property dealer from Kochi Bazaar here on Saturday.

Fazal Rabi, son of Fazal Gul, in his application submitted to Khan Raziq police station said that his brother Fazal Hussain was picked by two men wearing police uniform, but he suspected they were not policemen. “My brother used to do property business at Hashtnagri and come to my shop for taking tea and on Saturday as he came there two people in police uniform took the property dealer along with them,” he said.
