Sambhav Jain was on his way home in his car when a person riding a bike hit his car. After this, the biker fell down in front of the car and started screaming. When Sambhav Jain came out of the car to see him, the other miscreants hiding in the bushes kidnapped him at gunpoint.
Sambhav was kidnapped from outside his factory in Ludhiana. After kidnapping the Ludhiana businessman the miscreants demanded ransom from the family. Thereafter, the family informed the police about this. When the miscreants came to know that the police had set a trap to catch them, they shot the businessman and threw him near Vishwakarma Chowk.
Following this, the kidnappers fled from the spot in Sambhav's car. Notably, the bullet hit Sambhav's thigh. Currently, he has been admitted to DMC Hospital.

The kidnappers then forced the businessman call to his wife Soumya Jain.
As per reports, businessman Tarun Jain Bawa informed that the miscreants told Sambhav Jain to tell his wife at home that an income tax raid was going to be conducted on his house. Therefore, send a man with a bag full of gold and money kept in the house to Jalandhar Bypass.
When Soumya arrived at the spot with another man, Sambhav Jain called and asked to send back the person who had come with her in the car. As a result, Soumya sensed that something was wrong and thereafter she informed the Police. The Police then set a trap to nab the kidnappers. This information reached the kidnappers.
