A 21-year-old newly-wed woman was allegedly abducted here four days ago, police said on Saturday.

The woman's father, Naval Kishore (52), died Saturday morning in hospital, with the family saying it was because of the shock over the alleged abduction. Family members protested outside the hospital mortuary.

The family of Shobha Meghwal, who got married on June 21, alleged that she was abducted Tuesday afternoon by Monu alias Imran (25), who lived in the same locality, police said.

Meghwal, her friend and her brother were returning from the Kota district court after submitting necessary documents for the marriage certificate on Tuesday, the police were told.

Imran met the three on the way near Vallabh Nagar and took them on his motorcycle to Landmark City area.

According to the complaint, Imran then took Shobha Meghwal away from the other two on the pretext of having a personal conversation with her. He then allegedly abducted her.
