Bhubaneswar: On the day when Commissionerate Police claimed that the twin cities are safe despite 5 per cent rise in crime rate, unidentified miscreants attacked a woman and kidnapped her daughter at Patharagadia under Infocity police limits here on Wednesday night.
According to sources, the incident took place when the mother and daughter were returning home after attending a wedding.
