Jaipur, Sep 22 A 25-year-old man, who was allegedly abducted and beaten at a farmhouse here last week, died during treatment at a hospital on Tuesday, police said.
Following the development, police detained five people for questioning.
Tunga SHO Sajjan Singh said the deceased, Omprakash Bairwa, was hospitalised in a critical condition on September 15 and died on Tuesday morning.
According to the victim’s family, some people arrived near Bairwa’s house in a Bolero and on motorcycles and demanded money from him.
The SHO said when he refused to oblige them, they allegedly forced him into the vehicle and bolted towards a farmhouse where some other people were present.
