The Uttar Pradesh police on Friday secured the release of a doctor after a pre-dawn encounter with his abductors near a sugarcane plantation in Ghaziabad.
Two of the abductors were killed in the encounter.
Inspector General of Police (Meerut zone) Karamvir Singh said police confronted a car carrying the abductors and the doctor, Atul Shetty, at Nistolibridge at 4 am.
The kidnappers opened fire on the police. The cops retaliated and killed two kidnappers on the spot, he said.
