The arrestee is Bin Amin, 25, son of Adam Ali of Sateropara village in the upazila.
Amin made a phone call on Wednesday morning to Shirin Akhter, mother of Sadiqul Islam,14, and said her son, a Class IX student, had been abducted, said Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Trishal Police Station Md Moniruzzaman. Amin also made Shirin hear a child crying, which frightened her, the OC added.
Amin demanded Tk 20,000 from Shirin for release of Sadiqul.
Shirin sent the demanded money through a bKash number given by Amin around noon, police said.
After receiving the money, Amin informed Shirin over mobile phone that her son had been released in Mymensingh Shambhuganj Bridge area. Shirin rushed to the area but could not find Sadiqul.
