Subhasis alias Suvo, a 22-year-old youth was a neighbour of the victim Bittu Das.
Subhasish, a police officer claimed, has confessed to his crime admitting that he had kidnapped the teenage boy because he required the money to undergo an eye surgery.

Bittu's body was found late Sunday night after he went missing since the evening.
Family members of Bittu, a class ten student, said when he did not return home they received calls from an unknown mobile number at around 8.30 pm on Sunday demanding 50,000 as ransom.
